Firefighting operation in the forest
Fire in forest hut: firefighting operation from the air
Major operation after the fire in a forest hut on Wednesday in the Tyrolean Zillertal: the wooden house in inaccessible terrain was fully engulfed in flames and the fire departments first had to make their way to the scene. In order to prevent the flames from spreading to the forest, the fire was also extinguished from the air. Three rabbits, two dogs and a cat could not be rescued from the flames.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The fire in the leisure hut broke out at around midday for reasons that are as yet unexplained. The access road to the wooded area in Hart im Zillertal, where the mountain hut is located, was blocked by a timber winch and timber store, which is why initially only a small group of firefighters and police officers were able to reach the scene in off-road vehicles.
In order to prevent the flames from spreading to the surrounding forest, the police helicopter "Libelle" was called in to extinguish the fire from the air. According to the police, the fire was quickly brought under control.
Animals died in the flames
There were no people in the hut at the time of the outbreak, so no one was injured. However, two dogs and a cat in the hut and three rabbits outside the building could not be saved - they died in the flames.
The building burned to the ground. Investigations into the cause of the fire are ongoing.
