The authorities in Hawaii have admitted that a false alert for incoming missile attack was issued to more than a million people because an official pressed the wrong button on a computer screen.
TV and radio broadcasts were interrupted and a stark warning appeared on residents' phones, telling them to seek shelter before adding this is not a drill. The Governor of Hawaii David Ige has apologized for the panic caused. Brigette Namata, a television reporter in Honolulu says it's still hard to believe.
