Large rescue contingent
The Red Cross was also on site with five vehicles and at least 15 people were rescued from the home. One tenant was so desperate that he even jumped from the second floor. He ended up in a garden and was probably not seriously injured. It is currently unclear whether and how seriously the other people were injured. The Red Cross crisis intervention team (KIT) also arrived on site to support the population.
