Within about 8 the men of the Fire Brigade managed to set the fire under full control and prevent the risk of severe rejuvenation in the Oropos.
One of the most difficult days of this summer, with a 5th danger indicator – the highest on the fire forecast scale – and in extreme pyrological conditions predicted for Attica, the Civil Protection mechanism operated immediately in the fire.
The fire that began on Tuesday afternoon was under control within about 8 hours of its launch, thanks to the immediate mobilization and the night -time battle, without the loss of human lives or damage to homes – which demonstrates the effectiveness of preparation and coordination.
The Fire Brigade, on a general alert, immediately activated its operational plan with 210 firefighters, 11 forestry groups, 51 vehicles and 21 aerial means to the last light, while the project was reinforced by volunteers, the Region of Attica, the Municipality and the Municipality and the Municipality. The fire did not expand to the settlement of Asprochori, although it reached a breath away, and the organized removal of residents through 112 was made without problems, thanks to the contribution of the police. Even in the structure of Malacasa, there was complete preparation for possible removal of guests, which was not needed.
The image on the morning of the next day was positive: without active fronts, with ground and air forces maintaining control and continuing to be thrown to rough places to avoid resurrection. “It was a critical battle that was fought in terms of absolute operational readiness, and it turned out to be the most difficult battle that is not fought,” said firefighters who participated in the overnight extinguishing operation.
