Recently, serious high-rise fire accidents have occurred in Henan and Jiangxi, resulting in the unfortunate death of a total of 42 innocent people. This incident has aroused great public concern about such security issues. Factors such as imperfect fire-fighting facilities and blocked rescue channels have become important drivers of the tragedy.
According to reports, 13 boys in a high-rise residential building in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, were killed in a fire, and they were trapped in the flames, making desperate cries for help, which was heart-wrenching. On the same day, a fire broke out in a residential building in a residential area in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, resulting in the tragic death of 39 residents. The survey found that these citizens included a large number of post-secondary students. A man tried to flee in terror from the fire, calling hysterically on his deathbed"Mom"。
The lack of firefighting equipment became the main culprit of the accident. It is understood that when the fire broke out, the fire hydrant in a community in Zhengzhou City was locked and could not be used; At the scene of the fire in Jiujiang City, the fire truck was affected by the blockage, and it took dozens of minutes to arrive, at this time the victims had been struggling in the fire for half an hour, seeing the life and death situation, but because the fire fighting facilities were out of actual need, and finally unfortunately died.
The consequences of the tragedy are heartbreaking. Some people turn their sideburns gray overnight, just because their dearest mother, is gone forever in the merciless flames. At this critical moment, their son was only a few steps away from his mother, but he was unable to rescue his mother due to a fire hydrant failure. What is even more distressing is that when the firefighters finally managed to rush into the fire, they could only look at the bodies of the victims, unable to recover the heavy cost of the disaster.
In fact, similar tragedies could have been avoided. The root cause of the problem lies in the ignorance of safety awareness and the imperfection of fire protection facilities. Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, people's activities are more frequent, and fire safety issues are also highlighted. Although the state has taken many prevention and control measures to prevent similar tragedies from happening again, the worries and thoughts in our hearts cannot be ignored. Everyone should be aware of the importance of eliminating hidden dangers and improving safety and security measures to build a harmonious and beautiful home. It is our negligence in security that will cause that irreparable tragedy.
Conclusion: I hope that this tragedy can sound the alarm for us, strengthen the attention and management of fire safety, ensure that the safety of people's lives and property is fully guaranteed, and let people no longer lament in the "if" revealed by the tragedy.
