6 hectares in flames
After 6 days: “Fire out” at forest fire in Palfau
At last! After almost a week, the forest fire in Palfau in Upper Styria was finally extinguished on Thursday.
After an assessment of the situation on Thursday afternoon, the decision was made: Chief of Operations Christian Danner reported "fire out" to the Liezen Area Fire Brigade Control Center at exactly 4.17 pm. A forest fire had been raging on six hectares in Palfau im Gesäue since last Saturday. Around 100 firefighters were deployed to fight the flames - supported by four helicopters.
The Hochschwabstraße (B24) had to be repeatedly closed during the extinguishing work. During reconnaissance flights with thermal imaging cameras, new pockets of embers have been discovered again and again over the last few days. The operation has now been over since Thursday afternoon.
