Genuinely thought this had happened when I was there last and the air raid sirens woke me up in the middle of the night - the noise every 80s child had drilled into them as the herald of the Soviet ICBMs - but at least I was as far from civilisation as you could hope to be in the situation.
Turned out they just use them to wake up the volunteer fire brigade, and it was nothing to do with the Middle East kicking off WW3.
A few years back my dad sent me a video of sirens going off at 3am and it was a tsunami warning. My dad in his infinite wisdom wanders down to the beach to see if there’s any big waves
