KUWAIT: The Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy conducted a mock evacuation exercise at the ministry’s main building on Tuesday.

Assistant Undersecretary for the Technical Services Sector in the ministry, Eng Aaqoul Al-Enezi said that the ministry aims to conduct the mock evacuation exercise for the ministry’s employees in the building in order to prepare them for any potential emergency situations.

The drill also helps the ministry to check out on the readiness of the maintenance team responsible for alarm and fire systems and security and safety measures so that it can deal with any possible emergency situation.

“The experience was successful and confirms the ministry’s readiness to deal with emergency incidents that can occur at any time,” Al-Enezi explained.
