The commander of the Fire Brigade, Colonel Charles Santos, reported on the brigade's actions in Rio Branco. Several neighbourhoods were affected by the flooding of the River Acre, which flows through the city. "A triage is carried out and then we pass it on to the teams that are in the field to carry out the assistance. This screening is necessary because there are more than 40 neighbourhoods in Rio Branco affected by the flood. We need to know what kind of operational power and effectiveness we're going to be able to offer in local assistance, so we can try to get them to the shelters," said the fire brigade commander. The situation is increasing due to the behaviour of the River Acre. We hope that by next week everything will be back to normal," commented Colonel Charles Santos, commander of the Acre State Military Fire Brigade.
