Answer

What should residents in Mallorca do first if they smell smoke in their building?

If residents in Mallorca smell smoke in their building, they should leave the area immediately and alert emergency services as soon as it is safe to do so. Smoke can make stairwells and corridors unusable within minutes, so waiting to see what happens is not a good idea. It also helps if neighbours know the building’s evacuation routes in advance.
