Answer

What should be inspected before an underground tunnel in Mallorca is used as a shelter?

A proper inspection should check the tunnel layout, ventilation, escape routes, fire safety, structural load-bearing capacity and emergency lighting. In Mallorca, any site intended for shelter use should also have a public report and a clear plan for access and evacuation. Without that, the space should not be treated as ready for emergencies.
