Irish residents may receive emergency text alert from Britain
The UK's emergency alert system, which may appear on some Irish phones in the coming days if they pick up UK networks.
Irish residents near border areas may hear a loud, siren-like sound on their phone this Sunday — but there is no need to panic.
The UK government is rolling out a new emergency text alert system, with a test to take place between 3pm and 4pm on Sunday, April 23, as the Irish Government plans for its own system to launch next year.
