The 'Volcanex 2026' volcanic emergency drill commenced at 7:00 a.m. this Thursday in Guía de Isora, Tenerife. Organized by the Cabildo de Tenerife, the exercise serves as the second island-wide test of emergency response protocols in the event of a volcanic eruption.
This iteration of the drill is notable for its inclusion of the tourism sector, marking the first time local industry stakeholders have been integrated into the emergency response simulation. The initiative aims to enhance coordination and preparedness across the island's infrastructure and services.
