“There is also a crane to pull the hay bales apart, otherwise it will just be smoldering,” says a spokesperson for the security region. A lot of smoke is released during the fire, but the wind is towards the pasture. “The residential area should not be bothered by it.”
It is still unclear how long the fire brigade will be busy. “The signal ‘Brand Meester’ has not yet been given,” says the spokesperson around 9.40 pm.
