About

As a result of a major fire in a storage warehouse containing artificial fertiliser at a chemical plant in Vlaardingen, a cloud of toxic gas floats over the Westland in the direction of The Hague. An aircraft of the Royal Dutch Air Force passes on the speed and direction of the poisonous cloud, while the company fire brigade and the fire brigades of Vlaardingen, Schiedam and Rotterdam extinguish the fire. People in the vicinity hold cloths over their mouths against the stench. In the afternoon, the fire is under control and tired and smeared firefighters look at the shed.

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
