Thanks in particular to a significant deployment of resources: twelve fire engines, a drone and a tracked robot used to fire the fire hoses. “There was a significant hydraulic means, we confirm to the BSPP. In particular to avoid the risk of spread. »

Earlier in the night, the firefighters had already intervened in the same sector, to control the fire of precarious installations, used by the homeless, on the border of Gennevilliers and Villeneuve-la-Garenne. Again, the origin remains undetermined for the time being.
