A fire brigade is a team of trained professionals responsible for responding to fires and other emergencies. Their primary duties include extinguishing fires, rescuing individuals, and providing medical assistance. Fire brigades are equipped with specialized vehicles, such as fire engines and ambulances, along with tools like hoses, ladders, and protective gear. Fire brigades operate in various settings, including urban and rural areas, and are often part of local government services. They work closely with other emergency services, such as police and ambulance services, to ensure public safety. Community education on fire prevention is also a key aspect of their role.
