Air raid shelter
Fortified wartime structures which protect citizens from airborne attacks / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Air raid shelters are structures for the protection of non-combatants as well as combatants against enemy attacks from the air. They are similar to bunkers in many regards, although they are not designed to defend against ground attack (but many have been used as defensive structures in such situations).[citation needed]
