• Two simultaneous cellar fires in Nuremberg required rescues, with an eight-year-old girl hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
• In Leipzig-Mockau, a stairwell fire led to window evacuations of residents, including children, and one woman was hospitalized for smoke exposure.

• A rooftop fire in Berlin-Neukölln was quickly extinguished, and state security is investigating potential political motives behind the blaze.
