Dublin firefighters have repeated their appeal to the public to take measures to prevent wildfires. Crews have been extra busy over the past week in the wake of baking hot temperatures, and Dublin firefighters were again called to action yesterday.
Crews from Rathfarnham and Dun Laoghaire fire stations were called to a fire in Sandyford, off the Blackglen Road. The blaze had taken hold and smoke was widely visible in the area.
Crews tweeted at 11pm yesterday (Friday): "Firefighters from Rathfarnham and Dun Laoghaire fire stations were called to a gorse wildfire in Sandyford. Help prevent wildfires."
