Kristin: Chega and BE demand payment to firefighters in Alentejo

Chega and Bloco de Esquerda demand the government clarify overdue payments to firefighters in Alentejo for their assistance during the Kristin depression. They emphasize the need for timely compensation and proper treatment of firefighters as essential partners in civil protection. Firefighters mobilized between January 28 and February 7 have yet to receive payments for their services, with equipment still unreplenished. Delays in payment are attributed to changes in the operational command structure of civil protection. The regional commander acknowledged the payment delays, estimating the owed amount to be around 20,000 euros.
