Dresden (dpa / sn) - Firefighters and firefighters in Dresden had a quiet party this year. As the fire brigade announced on Tuesday, the holidays were relatively quiet for the team. So the comrades were spared deployments due to apartment fires this year. Only the searing of the Christmas roast, water damage and the storm triggered smaller deployments. Several garbage containers also caught fire during the Christmas holidays.

On the other hand, the control center recorded more medical rescue operations during the holidays than in the previous year. The ambulance was deployed a total of 681 times. This is an increase of 20 percent compared to 2021, it said.
