The rescue workers arrived immediately and entered the burning apartment with breathing apparatus, where they discovered the 35-year-old mother and her two children, aged three and six, in the children's room.

The emergency services immediately began resuscitation measures. “Unfortunately, without success,” said the fire department. The 36-year-old father, who had apparently tried to put out the fire himself, had to be taken to hospital with serious injuries.
