Fire and rescue crews from across Europe and the Middle East are taking part in a major exercise simulating an earthquake hitting a fictional British town.
The event, one of the largest to have been undertaken, is aimed at testing the response of the emergency services from the UK and seven other countries to an 'unthinkable' disaster.
Funded through a one million euro grant from the European Union, Exercise Orion is being held simultaneously in Portsmouth, Hampshire, and Merseyside.

"Naturally UK Health and Safety legislation is being complied with. In the unlikely event of an injury to any responder they will be provided with emergency treatment in the normal way. There is provision of one standby emergency ambulance at the live exercise.
1. The live exercise manager will consider suspending the exercise and UK legislative process will be followed;
2. The team leader of the affected individual will be responsible for informing their own organisation/ country;
3. The EU Civil Protection Coordination team are NOT PERMITTED to release any information without the prior approval from the media lead for Hampshire Gold.
4. The media lead for Hampshire Gold will lead on and coordinate all media releases."
