香港警方：中央支援专业装备有力提升大埔火灾救援效率

The Hong Kong Police Force said earlier that the professional rescue equipment provided by the Central Government has offered crucial support for carrying out high-intensity and demanding rescue and recovery operations following the Tai Po blaze.

香港特区政府警务处日前表示，香港大埔火灾发生以来，中央支援的专业救援装备为警队执行高强度、高难度的搜救与善后任务提供了关键支持。

Coordinated by the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, multiple batches of professional rescue equipment and medical supplies were delivered to Hong Kong, providing vital logistical and technical support for the search and recovery work.

中央港澳办积极协调有关部门向香港提供多批专业救援装备与医疗物资，为搜救与善后工作提供了重要的物资保障和技术支持。

Lui Kam-ho, director of operations for the Hong Kong Police Force, thanked the Central Government for its support. He said that after the fire, mainland units supplied more than 30,000 items, including tents, goggles, special lighting systems, and exoskeleton mechanical equipment. This assistance proved highly effective and was a great morale booster for frontline crews.

香港特区政府警务处行动处处长吕锦豪表示，衷心感谢中央政府的全力支持。火灾发生后，内地有关单位提供超过3万件物资，包括帐篷、护目镜、特别照明系统、外骨骼机械装备等，有效助力了救援工作，让前线人员深切感受到“一方有难，八方支援”的温暖与力量。

The rescue environment was extremely harsh, with the affected buildings heavily flooded, power cut off, and the site in total darkness, making search tasks difficult and dangerous. Among the equipment provided to Hong Kong, the exoskeleton mechanical gear and specially designed high-brightness lighting systems were described by frontline personnel as the most practical aid, Lui said.

吕锦豪介绍，救援工作环境恶劣，受灾楼宇内部积水严重，且电力中断、现场漆黑，搜寻任务艰巨且危险。在众多援港装备中，外骨骼机械装备和特制高亮度照明系统被前线人员称为“最实用的支援”。

Lui emphasized that the Central Government's timely assistance not only provided tangible material support but also conveyed the deep affection of the mainland people, strengthening Hong Kong society's confidence in overcoming the difficulties.

吕锦豪表示，中央的及时援助不仅提供了实实在在的物资支持，更传递了内地人民的深厚情谊，增强了香港社会各界同心协力、共克时艰的信心。

The Hong Kong Police Force, as one of the main rescue units in the Tai Po fire, has remained on the front line. Lui added that recovery and investigation work is proceeding in an orderly manner.

香港大埔宏福苑火灾发生以来，香港警方作为救援主力之一，持续奋战在一线。吕锦豪表示，目前相关善后与调查工作仍在有序进行。
