According to a ministry statement on Thursday, the Petra Region was selected for this trial, amid prevailing weather conditions, to evaluate the system's efficiency and effectiveness on the ground.
The trial aims to test the system's ability to deliver direct and instantaneous alerts to citizens, particularly during weather-related or emergency situations. The mobile messages will be accompanied by an audio alert to capture attention and ensure immediate viewing.
Authorities confirmed that the messages received on mobile phones are test alerts and urged citizens not to be alarmed. This step is part of developing the Kingdom's early warning and communication infrastructure.
