Helicopters deployed at the forest – Västerbotten Courier

A forest of approximately one square kilometer raging outside Bock Boda northwest of Orebro, type NA.

The alarm was 16:44 on Sunday and most of the evening was 25 firefighters on the scene aided by two helicopters.

– It has eased a bit now in the evening. We have two helicopters that have begun water bombing. It’s very rugged terrain so it has been difficult to obtain water and vehicles, says Tobias Frohm, internal officers on Nerike fire department, said.

TT: Do you have the fire under control?

– we have loaded up properly with the forces so we’ll see tomorrow morning when the day dawns what happens. Then we have three helicopters, then we might well turn it down, we think, he says.

Even during the night, the staff in place and trying to get the fire under control.
