CNN UK reported that a loud siren sounded on smartphones across the UK as part of a test of a new emergency alert system by the Rishi Sunak-led government. The alert would blare up the smartphones for up to 10 seconds across Britain on Sunday. Initial reports suggest many people didn't receive the warning; for some, it sounded earlier than expected, the report added.
