CEOC activated for first time over tsunami threat
Posted on 2025-07-31 06:54:13
The Central Emergency Operation Center has been activated for the first time
in response to a tsunami.

The move came after a magnitude-8.8 earthquake struck Russia's Far East
Kamchatka Peninsula.

The center says it convened its first work and intelligence assessment
meeting at noon, after the Central Weather Administration issued a tsunami
warning.

The center says 23 rescue aircraft and 14 naval vessels were placed on standby

Local governments also ordered coast guard personnel to remind the public to
avoid from coastal areas and conduct safety checks at fishing harbors.

The National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction reported
that potential tsunami flooding could impact coastal areas in Chiayi County,
Tainan, Kaohsiung, Pingtung, Taitung, New Taipei, Yilan and Hualien.

It said simulations estimated possible overflow depths of around 0.3-meters
in the affected areas.
