Report
A fire was reported in a wooded area near the village of Frankenstein in the municipality of Enkenbach-Alsenborn. The topography of the scene required a large number of units to fight the fire. The Winnweiler Fire Department provided support with the swap-body vehicle (WLF) equipped with a roll-off container holding 10,000 liters of water, as well as an all-terrain tanker fire engine (TLF) on a Unimog chassis, which delivers 4,500 liters of water to the scene.
In addition, the Enkenbach fire department received support in ensuring basic fire protection, as a fully staffed rescue fire engine (HLF) was stationed at the Enkenbach fire station to handle any simultaneous calls. However, no such calls occurred.
