The focus is on Bochum. - Sizable container blazing with hefty trash inside

During a fire emergency, officials discovered a stand-alone container housing approximately 50 cubic meters of large waste materials. The flames had already taken over the container. The situation was initially handled with two high-pressure water hoses to quell the flames. Once the fire was subdued, an excavator arrived to demolish the burning materials and douse any remaining sources of fire. This entire process of extinguishing the blaze took approximately 90 minutes, and fortunately, no one was harmed during the event.
