A fire broke out fiercely at a scrap yard in Binh Chanh district, Ho Chi Minh City.

The yard contained many flammable items, so the fire quickly spread. The Fire Prevention and Fighting Team of Binh Chanh District, the Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue Police Department, and Ho Chi Minh City Police mobilized vehicles and dozens of officers and soldiers to the scene to put out the fire.

Police deployed fire fighting forces.

The road to the scrap yard is narrow, and the yard is surrounded by iron fences and corrugated iron roofs, making it difficult to fight the fire.

The water hose was extended deep inside to reach the fire. The fire brigade split into many directions, using water hoses to spray water to isolate the fire. After more than 1 hour of fire fighting, the fire was brought under control.

The fire scene was deep inside the land, fire trucks could not enter so the water hose was extended to reach the fire.

At the scene, the scrap yard was burned and severely damaged. A car and many other properties stored inside the scrap yard were burned and severely damaged. While fighting the fire, some firefighters suffered burns to their arms.

While fighting the fire, some soldiers suffered minor injuries to their hands.

It is known that every day at the scrap yard, many workers come to sort and collect plastic bags, then press them into large blocks to recycle plastic.
