The town of Plettenberg - Forest blaze put out using a drone by fire department.

Firefighters from the local station and the Eiringhausen fire unit were dispatched to the Brachtweg area near the Schwarzenberg castle ruins. An initial search in the Sehnsuchtsbirke zone failed to find the cause of the fire, so the incident commander decided to use a newly loaded drone for further exploration. Utilizing the drone, they located a burning fire barrel and directed the fire protection team towards it. Upon arrival, the team met the drone operator, who was tasked with completely extinguishing the fire.
