In solidarity we prepare, and united we stand.

We are boosting our preparedness against wildfires through the fleet and a strategic pre-positioning of firefighters. This means:

→ 24 aeroplanes and 4 helicopters hosted by ten EU countries;
→ 550+ firefighters from twelve countries on standby.

We have also allocated €600 million that will facilitate the acquisition of 12 new firefighting planes and several helicopters in the future.

@EU_Commission This is great news, it'll be well needed with what I suppose a risk of increasing wildfires because of global warming.
