ISLAMABAD: The International Firefighters’ Day is being observed across the globe, including Pakistan, to honour the firefighters today (Thursday).
The day highlights the need for more intensive and thorough training and fire prevention.
It is the day when the world’s community can recognise and honour the sacrifices of firefighters.
The International Firefighters’ Day (IFFD) was instituted after a proposal was emailed out across the world on January 4, 1999, due to the deaths of five firefighters in tragic circumstances in a wildfire at Linton in Victoria, Australia.
