The images showed large clouds of smoke. The fire brigade came with large equipment. According to the spokeswoman, the fire started on a balcony at the rear of the homes. The cause is unknown. The fire quickly spread through the balconies and then entered the house.

The fire brigade has created a so-called stop line to prevent the fire from spreading further. Post-extinguishing can take some time.

People in the area affected by the smoke are advised to close windows and doors and switch off the automatic ventilation.
