Protecting critical infrastructure is vital during an alert like this, however, the economic and social impact of an indefinite 'stay indoors' order needs to be considered.

It's reassuring that air defenses are active for public safety, but the lack of specific details about the threat is unsettling and can lead to speculation.

While keeping people indoors ensures immediate safety, a prolonged lack of information about the 'unidentified activity' could cause more anxiety than it prevents.
