A major fire broke out shortly before noon in a fir forest in La Roche-en-Ardenne. Eight hectares of wood are on fire. The N89 has been closed to traffic. The first houses are located 100 meters away.
The firefighters were called at 11:57 a.m. and are still on site, they are deployed on 3 lines. Access is difficult due to rocks and sloping terrain. The red plan was triggered at 1:10 p.m. The federal police helicopter left the Fagnes fire to go to that of La Roche-en-Ardennes.
Thanks to the helicopter, following several drops, the firefighters ensure that the fire is under control (3:45 p.m.). Firefighters believe the situation should continue to improve. The first firefighters should be able to leave around 6-8 p.m.
