At present 6 houses in the district Kond are on fire.
6 fire brigades have arrived on the scene. But they haven’t been able
to put out the fire so far.
According to the reporter of “A1+,” the cars cannot get to the fire
hearth because the houses are rather close to each other. But the
firemen were able to take the rubber tubes to the fire hearth.
The residents are trying to put out the fire by pouring water from
buckets. According to them, the fire started in one of the houses
because of the gas flowing and spread at a terrible speed. But
the representative of gas service noted that there isn’t natural
gas there and gas couldn’t be the main cause of fire. Some of the
residents assume that the fire was caused by electricity. The fire
can be extinguished more quickly by a helicopter. By the way, most
of the dwellers of the burning houses were out the moment it started
and on returning home they found out that they no longer have houses.
