The fire began on the first floor in an apartment building in Bettel and spread vertically up until the roof, before moving on to the neighbouring building. This neighbouring building had a bar on its ground floor.
Firefighters managed to get the fire under control rather quickly, extinguishing it by the early afternoon.
44 firefighters from six fire brigades were all at the scene, alongside an ambulance from Diekirch. Whilst three houses were affected, there were no injuries. One person was taken to hospital for a check-up but was found to be in good health.
The N10 was closed for the entire afternoon.
CGDIS also reported a hedge on fire between Sanem and Soleuvre at 9 am. Monday morning also saw another motorcyclist sustain injuries, as they fell off their bike between Ellange and Filsdorf. The Mondorf-les-Bains fire brigade dispatched firefighters to attend the injured person alongside a Remich ambulance.
