Selangor Fire and Rescue Department combats flames across 1.64 hectares at an unauthorized waste site in Rawang. Assistant Director Ahmad Mukhlis Mukhtar reports that firefighters have controlled half the affected zone through direct suppression tactics. Heavy equipment operators use excavators to remove burning debris and eliminate underground embers. The emergency response continues for 20 hours each day since authorities first spotted the blaze on Sunday. Multiple hot spots remain active throughout the burning area.
Department personnel deploy drone technology equipped with thermal imaging to track dangerous zones. Officials confirm zero injuries from the incident while investigators work to determine the fire's origin. Crews prevent flame expansion beyond the current perimeter using strategic containment methods. The operation represents one of the largest waste facility fires in recent regional history.
