Forest fire in Prague's Radotín extinguished with helicopter support

Approximately nine hectares of forest caught fire on Sunday afternoon in Prague's Radotín. Firefighters quickly localized the blaze, but due to hidden hotspots in difficult terrain, a helicopter equipped with a water bucket was deployed. High temperatures and dry conditions complicated the efforts. The fire was under control by early evening, with a helicopter making several water drops to ensure the fire was fully extinguished. Following a final check with a thermal camera, the firefighters began returning to their stations. In response to the fire risk, Prague has imposed a ban on open flames, smoking, and fireworks in high-risk areas.
