Fire Strikes Muara Baru: Nine Fishing Boats Burnt, Fire Almost Comes to Fish Auction
Nine fishing boats at the Nizam Zachman Muara Baru Ocean Fishing Port, North Jakarta, became victims of the fire. The North Jakarta Fire Management and Rescue Service firefighting team immediately responded to this incident.
The fire department received a report about this fire at 23.48 WIB and quickly moved to the location with 17 fire extinguishers and other supporting equipment. Only two ships were initially burned, but the fire quickly spread to the other ships, forcing officers to act.
In this fire, a total of nine fishing boats became victims. Apart from that, the fire also touched the nearby fish auction building. Even so, the officers succeeded in limiting the fire so that it did not spread further so that the Syahbandar office, which was adjacent to the area, was not threatened.
The firefighting team finally extinguished the fire after two hours of hard work, around 01.55 WIB. One of the obstacles they faced was that the burning ship was located in the waters, so they had to pull several other vessels to avoid a wider spread of fire.
