Haibo: Video Shows Community Trying to Fill Up Fire Truck With Buckets to Put Out Fire on Burning Building

• Sadly, a community had to carry buckets of water to put out a fire on a burning building due to a lack of infrastructure
• The clip was shared on social media showing the community members doing the most in a heart-breaking situation
• The people of Mzansi were angered by the clip but proud of the people for taking matters into their own hands

A video of community members coming together to help put out a fire on a burning building has filled hearts with hope. We are so much stronger when we work as one.

There was no place for the fire truck to connect to for water so the people ran back and forth with buckets of water to fill the truck's reservoir.

Facebook page Mzansi LIVE shared the inspiring clip showing the efforts of a community that came together to save a building. While the clip was heart-warming, it was also sad to see the lack of infrastructure in this community.

“Wise move for water relay... Remember this thing carries only 5000ltr of water.. If there's no fire hydrant on the street there's nothing this people can do.. It's either they use neighbors swimming pools or they must request for back up fire engine that will do water relay depending on the distance that it must take to get the water to the truck that will be busy fighting the fire.... Good job lovely community ”

Heading online, Siyanda Calvin Ntenga shared the heartfelt post.

"Before and after pictures of today’s SANTACO-KZN, Durban Central Region taxi owners clean up campaign. It was great seeing the community come out in numbers to join. Let's rebuild our beautiful South Africa!!!" he captioned the post.
