The Ministry of Culture of Ukraine approved guidelines for organizing and conducting mass cultural and entertainment events in case a yellow level of air strike threat is established. This was reported on the ministry's website.
“Organizers must preliminarily prepare a clear action plan, ensure access to shelters, and promptly inform visitors about the level of threat. At the same time, a person must receive all necessary information to independently decide whether to stay at the event,” said Tetiana Berehna, Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister for humanitarian policy and Minister of Culture.
It is noted that, under the new rules, the establishment of a yellow threat level does not automatically mean postponing, stopping, or canceling the event. The organizer may decide to start or continue the event if security conditions are ensured, in particular access to shelter for all attendees, participants, and staff.
Before the event, organizers are advised to designate shelters and convenient routes to them, check capacity, ensure free access to evacuation exits, appoint persons responsible for monitoring the security situation and informing people.
Importantly, the number of attendees should be determined taking into account the possibility of also accommodating staff, performers, and other participants in the shelter. It was added:
“During the yellow threat level, an event may begin or continue if there is available shelter of sufficient capacity, actual access to it, and attendees know the movement route. A person has the right to leave the event venue and move to the shelter on their own. The organizer must ensure this possibility and, if necessary, assist with relocation.”.
If a red threat level is established, the event does not begin before it. If the red level is established during the event, the organizer stops it, informs people about the nearest shelter, and ensures an organized transition to it.
