[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] Gwangju Bukbu Fire Station (Chief Kim Hee-chul) conducted a fire response drill on the 9th targeting high-rise buildings in the jurisdiction to promote special fire safety measures.

This drill was carried out to establish a proactive on-site response system to strengthen fire response capabilities for high-rise buildings ahead of the full-scale winter season.

In particular, since rapid on-site response is difficult in the event of a fire in high-rise buildings, the drill focused on searching for people and fire points using firefighting drones, establishing a command system through drone-transmitted video, and conducting evacuation drills for related personnel.

Park Cheong-soon, the on-site response team leader, stated, "We will strive to protect citizens' lives and property through efficient rescue and fire suppression during fires by enhancing on-site response capabilities for high-rise buildings using firefighting drones and improving the autonomous fire management capabilities of related personnel."
