The gap between the specialized warnings of experts and the speed of urban management actions in the days following the war has left metropolises vulnerable to unsafe aerial threats. While the Research Center for Roads, Housing, and Urban Development emphasizes immediate and short-term interventions to secure safe spaces, neglecting swift action and focusing on long-term projects like the promised construction of 'parking-shelters' could pose serious risks to citizens. Exclusive discussions with Ahmad Fatemi, a member of the Social Commission of the Parliament, and Mehdi Aghariyan, a member of the Tehran City Council, reveal that addressing the challenge of shelter construction and the inefficiency of traditional warning systems in modern conflicts requires a legal obligation for shelter attachments in construction, the establishment of a centralized command for issuing alerts, and inter-agency coordination; a critical mandate whose delay in implementation could be irreparable.
