For everyone who observes the holiday mitzvah and burns chametz, we reiterate our call to take all safety measures:

  • Do not use flammable liquids such as gasoline, diesel, etc.
  • Do not burn chametz without adult supervision.
  • The chametz should be burned in an isolated place without power cables or vehicles that could be damaged.
  • Extinguishing media such as water or a fire extinguisher should be kept nearby to prevent spread in case of loss of control.

Of course, in any case of danger we have to call 102 the firefighters and we will get there quickly.
