In one of the high-rise buildings of Smolensk, on Builders Avenue, there was a fire. The fire brigade arrived after receiving calls to the fire department with a message about the smell of burning, felt on the landing. At the scene of the emergency, firefighters quickly determined from which apartment smoke was coming into the entrance. The room on the first floor was on fire, the owner of which was an elderly resident of Smolensk.
Even before the arrival of firefighters, the old woman’s neighbor tried to get through the smoke into the room, the front door of which she accidentally left open. The man found the source of the fire. It turned out to be a washing machine, on which the hostess installed an electric stove. The tile became hot, from which the lid of the washing machine on which it stood began to melt. Attempts by a neighbor to put out the fire with improvised means did not yield results. Fortunately, firefighters arrived, took people out of the apartment, and put out the fire. The victims were examined by paramedics, who did not reveal any threat to their health. The pensioner herself escaped with only a fright, well, she was left without a washing machine.
