Basic Supplies Needed In The Event of Nuclear Attack

The DEFCON Warning System advises citizens in the Ukraine theatre being preparing in the event of a nuclear attack.

There is no cause for alarm, and there is no imminent nuclear threat at this time. This is only advisory.

In additional to shelter, supplies are needed. A shelter without supplies is not a shelter but a tomb.

The following list comes from ki4u.com

This list provides only for short-term survival. Likely you will need to expand this list to survive longer than the 2-3 days this list provides for.

Better to risk being a little early when securing your families essential food and supplies, rather than a few hours too late and going home empty-handed…

Ready-to-eat foods (granola/energy/protein bars, snack-paks, raisins, cheese, etc.)
Some perishable foods (breads and fruits like bananas, apples, oranges, grapes, etc.)
Canned goods (soups, chili, vegetables, fruit, tuna, meats, beans, peanut butter, etc.)
Assorted drink mix flavorings (with no cold drinks, just plain water, kids will appreciate it!)
Plenty of potent Multi-Vitamins, Vit C, Pepto Bismol, aspirin, tylenol, other OTC meds, etc.
