As temperatures soar and power fluctuations become more frequent, the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) has raised alarms about the rising risk of fire incidents across the Philippines. General Santos City recorded 140 fire incidents in 2024, with the primary causes linked to open flames, cooking, and electrical faults. With extreme heat intensifying these hazards, the need for proactive fire prevention measures has never been greater.
