CDMX will bring the macro simulacrum to Xochimilco

As part of the Second National Drill scheduled for September 19, the Government of Mexico City will conduct two emergency scenarios during a large-scale simulation. One scenario will take place at Plaza de la República and Reforma, near the Monument to the Revolution, while another will occur at the sports complex in the Xochimilco borough. The head of the Secretariat of Integral Risk Management and Civil Protection (SGIRPC), Myriam Urzúa, explained that these locations will allow emergency services to demonstrate their response capabilities through techniques such as search, rescue, victim stabilization, and extraction. This year’s drill will take place on a Saturday, prompting authorities to make extra efforts to encourage public participation. The exercise aims to test the city’s emergency protocols and assess the effectiveness of seismic warning systems, evacuation times, and overall preparedness. The hypothetical earthquake scenario involves a magnitude 7.7 quake with an epicenter 15 kilometers south-southwest of Tehuacán, Puebla, at a depth of 67 kilometers. Registration for participating buildings is open via the official website.
