The fire started on the second floor of the administrative building and spread rapidly, covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters. According to the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry, significant forces were immediately sent to the scene to fight the fire.
The fire ship Colonel Chernyshev, two Ka-32 helicopters and about 110 firefighters were called in to extinguish the fire. The scale of the incident required the use of specialized equipment and coordination of efforts between several emergency services units.
Despite the rapid pace at which the fire is spreading, there are no reports of casualties at this time, which is positive news in this alarming situation.
A fire broke out in one of the three-storey administrative buildings on Berezhkovskaya Embankment. The second floor, where the fire started, according to preliminary data, is intended for a car service centre, a warehouse and a motorcycle service centre. These rooms, filled with various materials and equipment, became a source of rapid spread of the fire. Despite the efforts of firefighters, extinguishing the fire takes several hours.
The cause of the fire has not yet been established, but experts are working to uncover it. Once the fire is fully extinguished, a thorough investigation will be carried out to understand exactly what led to such a serious incident.
Firefighters continue to fight the fire to prevent further spread and minimize damage. Residents of nearby houses watch the work of rescuers, hoping that the operation will be completed successfully and without casualties.
