The municipality of Hoegaarden is conducting a test of the BE-Alert alarm system today, October 1st, 2026. This exercise aims to ensure rapid notification of citizens in the event of an emergency.
Residents who receive a message from number 1789, a phone call from 0477 77 77 55, and/or an email from no-reply@be-alert.be are asked to report this in the comments.
Those not yet registered can sign up via www.be-alert.be. Additionally, citizens are encouraged to take further steps to prepare for emergencies, as outlined in the new brochure from the National Crisis Centre.
