The agency, which previously went by the abbreviation MSB, wants people to help neighbors find shelters and get them ready, among other things.

"Of course, we should start with the voluntary defense organizations, with the Civil Defense Association, the Red Cross, but you can also think of other solutions: sports clubs or village teams if they are located in more sparsely populated areas," says Henrik Larsson, MCF, on the radio.
