Fire report from USA – ‘On Monday May 20, 2024, a Panel of USA legal experts discussed risks associated with cell towers and wildfires. They claim ‘new scientific findings are uncovering unique wildfire risks associated with the proliferation of wireless small cell and macro towers, smart meters and other IoT devices. At the same time, empowered local communities are innovating to address these grave risks. This is a foreseeable and avoidable catastrophe. It is also a matter of profound social and environmental justice and basic human rights.’ https://www.radiationresearch.org/news/phone-mast-fire-hazards/?
Message below from Susan Foster Medical Writer, USA Advisor for the EM Radiation Research Trust, Honorary Firefighter San Diego Fire Department
“I was honored to be part of the USA panel in May 2024 that Eileen OConnor references. I spoke on telecommunication fires (link on post above). When you see a fire higher on the mast near the antenna or even at the base where ancillary telecommunications equipment may be placed, this is an electrical fire. Electrical fires cannot be extinguished through conventional means (water suppression) until the grid has been cut. In the meantime, the fire can spread, depending on weather conditions. As the US Advisor to the EM Radiation Research Trust, I would ask that you please send Eileen OConnor photographs of other mast fires with location and date of fire, and we will attempt to obtain the fire incident reports from the authorities. Thank you. Susan Foster”

17 April, 2020 5G protestors NOT to blame for fire, say police – NZ Herald – 👉 Police have now confirmed a preliminary finding that an April 9 transmission tower fire in Porirua was caused by a fault.

But a police spokeswoman told the Herald this morning: “There were no suspicious circumstances around the fire. A FENZ [Fire and Emergency] investigation has determined the fire was caused by an electrical fault.” https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/5g-protestors-not-to-blame-for-fire-say-police/SILK2SLOURKW67KMDKN2DM3XMU/?c_id=3&objectid=12325468
