The Netherlands, explained

Veiligheidsregio Haaglanden

The Haaglanden safety region is one of the regional safety authorities in the Netherlands, responsible for coordinating fire services, ambulance care, and municipal crisis management across The Hague and surrounding municipalities. When a disaster or major incident occurs, it leads the regional emergency response and informs the public. Its role matters most during events like storms, floods, or large fires that affect several local authorities at once.
