Sažetak
On March 21, the Croatian Government (following a suggestion of the Civil Protection Coordination Center) introduced a “stay at home” order for the whole country due to the pandemic, and the very next day a magnitude 5.5 quake shook the northern part of Croatia, mostly damaging the capital city of Zagreb and its nearest urban satellites, affecting almost 1 million people in total. Natural disaster situations were not rare in Croatia in the recent years and the main disaster relief role in those crisis situations is assigned to the Civil protection system of the Republic of Croatia. Even though it might not be obvious, military forces play an important role in disaster relief and the Civil protection activities. In this paper the Croatian national Civil protection system with the rather complex alarming procedure is described. Here the authors place an accent on the involvement of military forces in disaster relief.
