- Early on Sunday, August 23, 2026, numerous waste bins burned again in the Rheingau-Viertel and neighboring Dichterviertel along the First Ring.
- Police are investigating suspected arson, while ELW and the fire service view the concentration of fires as indicating intent rather than negligence; ELW said yellow recycling bins were affected most often.
- Before the weekend, more than 250 waste containers had already been destroyed by fire, with replacement costs excluding the latest demand in the mid-five-figure euro range.
- According to the professional fire service, eight volunteer fire brigades supported the major operation so that no safety gap arose despite the workload.
Every burned garbage bin is far more than just property damage. The fires cause substantial costs, tie up staff, and can, in the worst case, endanger human lives. This development greatly concerns us.— Markus Patsch, ELW operations manager; warned ahead of the current series of fires
