Central European fire brigade exercises

Overview

In late July 2026, the Neratovice fire brigade in the Czech Republic staged a large‑scale tactical drill called “Budova 2026”. The exercise simulated a multi‑floor electric‑scooter fire, involving firefighters, medical teams, police and municipal officials in evacuation, interior search, fire suppression and casualty care.

A week later, on 2 August 2026, firefighters in Novo Virje, Croatia, conducted a tactical demonstration at the Čarda recreation area. The event highlighted operational readiness, equipment and skills for various crises, and included a special session for children and youth, underscoring the role of civil protection and recruitment.

Both drills illustrate ongoing efforts by Central European fire services to enhance coordination, public safety and community engagement through realistic training scenarios across neighboring countries.
