Another alarming fire broke out on Saturday evening in Juri Gagarin-Straße in Cottbus in the Ströbitz district. At 11:30 p.m., residents reported a strong smoke from the basement of an apartment building. As Niederlausitz-aktuell.de describes, numerous residents were still in their apartments when the fire brigade arrived.

A total of 41 people were medically examined and some even received treatment.

several missions in a short time

There was already a crucial impulse at the beginning of the mission when the keyword "ManV-Klein" (mass incidence of injured-small location) was increased, which underlined the seriousness of the situation. As with the fire in Tröbitz, the circumstances around the cause of the fire are still unclear. Criminal technicians are on site to clarify the situation. After combating the fire, the fire brigade ensured that all apartments were checked and the building was ventilated.

These two incidents once again illustrate the risks associated with fires. According to the Center for Fire Statistics of the [CTIF] (https://ctif.org/de/news/das-ctif- Feuerwehr statistics-Magazin-28-ist-series), fire protection and the research of fire causes are of great importance. The most recent report shows that there are also many missions in Germany due to fires that are consistently high in both urban and rural areas. In particular, the evaluation of causes of fire is increasingly being relevant, since decisive knowledge for future prevention can be gained.

It is hoped that the emergency services can learn from the experience of the last missions in the coming days and that we can all live more safely in the region - because it is important to always have a good knack in dealing with the sometimes unpredictable fire.
