The first of what is planned to be an annual humanitarian and disaster recovery exercise with UNP agencies has ended with a final simulated recovery of crew at a nuclear power station outside Hexian City which was (in the exercise scenario) struck by an earthquake. During the exercise DDS personnel and equipment supported a team from the UNP Nuclear Safety Agency.
Following the exercise however the DDS were called upon for a real emergency after a building caught fire at the nearby DDS City. The fire was quickly bought under control, no one is understood to have been seriously injured in the blaze thought to have been caused by a kitchen fire.
