Details: The firefighting is reported to be complicated by the high fire load of the warehouse and the complex layout of the building. More than 80 personnel and 25 pieces of equipment are involved in fire extinguishing.

In addition, a Ka-32 helicopter of the Russian Emergencies Ministry and another Ka-32 of the Moscow Aviation Centre have already been involved in extinguishing the fire.
