Major fire breaks out at industrial estate in Almere

A large fire raged in a commercial building in Almere Haven on Friday night. The fire department deployed numerous units to extinguish the fire, which broke out at around 3.15 a.m. at the De Steiger industrial estate.

The fire department managed to prevent the fire from spreading to the site where a car tire company is located, a spokeswoman for the safety region said on Saturday morning.
