The General Directorate of Civil Defense carried out a mock evacuation exercise at the Bahrain Financial Harbour’s East Tower as part of the evacuation plans for various facilities, and the administration’s endeavour to enhance public safety.

The exercise was aimed at training the civil defence staff on the evacuation process and on the readiness of the Bahrain Financial Harbour, and how to act in the event of an emergency, in addition to measuring the response speed of the civil defence staff.

The evacuation process took 13 minutes to get all the employees and visitors to the port.

There were about 400 people at the time of the operation.
