On July 17, the People's Committee of Hue City conducted a firefighting and rescue drill at Aeon Mall Hue - the largest shopping center in Hue City with 1,700 participants and machinery.





Hypothetical situation, in the kitchen of Pizza Hut restaurant (3rd floor of Aeon Mall Hue), there was a gas leak causing an explosion, collapsing the kitchen structure, crushing 2 employees and causing a big fire. The fire quickly spread throughout the entire restaurant, threatening to spread to other stalls, toxic smoke spread to the 4th floor...
At the time, the center had about 5,000 people and the chaotic evacuation process left 151 people trapped. In addition, a panicked driver drove his car into a basement pillar and became trapped.
The local fire prevention force deployed rescue, guided evacuation, extinguished the fire on the spot and called 114. Hue City Police mobilized forces to the scene to coordinate fire fighting and rescue and reported to the Chairman of Hue City People's Committee to mobilize more forces to extinguish the fire as well as rescue the victims.

Mr. Hoang Hai Minh, Vice Chairman of Hue City People's Committee, said that the fire fighting and rescue drills are to apply and implement the 4 on-site motto well. At the same time, aiming at the goal of "Every factory, enterprise, and business is safe". This is also an opportunity to practice and improve the ability to coordinate between forces, situation handling skills of commanders, officers, soldiers and functional forces; check and evaluate the features, effects, and actual effectiveness of equipment, vehicles, communications, and logistics of participating units to supplement, equip, and ensure adequate readiness to meet urgent and complicated situations.
