A "Major Disaster" refers to a significant event that causes widespread destruction, disruption, and distress. This can include natural events like earthquakes, hurricanes, or floods, as well as human-made incidents such as industrial accidents or terrorist attacks. These disasters often overwhelm local resources and require assistance from larger organizations or governments. The impact of a major disaster can be severe, affecting thousands of lives and leading to loss of property, infrastructure, and even lives. Emergency response teams, including firefighters, paramedics, and military personnel, are typically deployed to provide immediate aid and support recovery efforts in the affected areas.
