The Australian government introduced the national “Strategy for the protection of places of mass gatherings from terrorism”, reports TASS Sunday, August 20.
“We have identified the criteria by which the municipal authorities, the administration of various institutions, businesses and retail outlets will be able to assess the vulnerability of their targets for such terrorist attacks,” — said the Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.
One of the most important tasks Turnbull called fencing pedestrian areas with concrete tables.
According to the Agency, the work on this anti-terrorist strategy began after the terrorist attack in nice, where the driver of the truck hit people on the waterfront. The same, by way of committing, acts of terrorism occurred then in several other cities.
“It is impossible to achieve 100 percent guarantee of protection, but much can be done to improve the security level of each object”, — said the Prime Minister of Australia and added that his recommendations to the local authorities and businessmen will also offer law enforcement agencies.
