| Abstract: | During the Gulf War Israel was divided into six alarm zones to enable the people to be released gradually from their shelters according to the rate of damage and danger which has been in the different regions. These zones were outlined superficially, neither according to basic geographical elements, nor to the ballistic behaviour of the Iraqi missiles. A modified division into ten alarm zones was announced in September 1992 following the blockade which the USA had laid on military aviation in southern Iraq. A different division of alarm zones, based on ballistic and geographical parameters is proposed should there be missile attacks on the country in the future. |
