GEM 2022 Missie

Europese branden

Global Empowerment Mission BStrong reageert in de eerste fase van de rampenbestrijding door voedsel, water en schoonmaakmiddelen te leveren aan eerstehulpverleners en eerstelijnswerkers die momenteel de Europese branden bestrijden.

Fase 1: Hulpverlening bij rampen

We zijn in Hresnko geweest, het dorp in het Nationaal Park in Tsjechië waar de grootste brand in de geschiedenis van dit land woedt. Elke route naar dit gebied is geblokkeerd, alleen brandweerlieden en inwoners die helpen kunnen er komen. Bijna heel Hresnko en omgeving is geëvacueerd omdat het vuur heel dicht bij hun huizen is. We brachten enkele pallets (water, proteïnerepen en natte doekjes) naar degenen die daar verbleven en zij proberen te helpen.
