Extinguishing work: Large forest fire in the Elbe-Elster district flared up again

The big forest fire in Kölsa-Rehfeld (Elbe-Elster district) flared up again on Wednesday evening. According to a district spokesman, the flames are on the Saxon side about 250 meters from the B183 federal road in Falkenberg, Brandenburg. There are 318 men and women fighting the fire. After a reported bomb find from Saxony turned out to be a mistake, they could now continue fighting the flames.
