The commitment extended further with the mobilisation of 626 volunteer and professional firefighters. Recognising the surge in emergency calls, the CGDIS bolstered the emergency service with an additional three personnel to ensure a prompt and efficient response.
The Operations Management Centre (CGO) played a pivotal role, continuously monitoring the situation and orchestrating the allocation of additional resources as deemed necessary. Additionally, the CGDIS actively participated in the crisis cell stationed at Senningen Castle. All non-operational staff were asked to work from home.
Although the preventative measures put in place by the government helped to limit the number of interventions, the CGDIS said they had carried out 210 operations since midnight, including 92 falls, and 2 traffic incidents. However, no major intervention was required.
