The disclosure provides a method (100) for providing an answer to a first User Equipment, UE, (210, 310) of a calling user in an emergency event taking place in an environment where a second UE (220, 320) of a called user resides. The method comprises: obtaining (S110) activity data in relation to the second UE (220, 320) from one or more network nodes associated with the emergency event; receiving (S120) a failure notification indicating that a call originated from the first UE (210, 310) towards the second UE (220, 320) has failed; evaluating (S130) a status of the called user based on the activity data; generating (S140) a message based on the evaluated status of the called user; and transmitting (S150) the message to the first UE (210, 310).
