אסונות · Wainwright fireWainwright Alberta fire: Four soldiers killed; 39-patient total included 12 outpatientsנכתב 20 באוקטובר 2026 בשעה 08:08 UTCצפייהתמליל0:0712 of the 39 fire patients were treated without hospital admission.0:11Four soldiers died, and Sunday's medical breakdown changes how that patient total0:14should be understood.0:16Investigators still have to explain why soldiers kept training beside a known grass0:19fire.0:20On October 19th, we reported four confirmed deaths, 39 patients receiving hospital0:25care, and at least 19 critical cases.0:27Sunday's detailed breakdown included 12 outpatients.0:30That corrects the implication that all 39 had been admitted or remained in hospital.0:34Health officials described 19 people in life-threatening condition and 8 stable0:39patients.0:40Another 12 had injuries that didn't require admission and received outpatient0:43treatment.0:44Those three groups add up to 39.0:46The breakdown describes their care on Sunday.0:48Premier Danielle Smith separately said at least 19 patients were critical.0:52We don't know how many patients remain admitted or how their conditions have changed0:56since Sunday.0:57The outpatient figure doesn't mean 12 people recovered after our earlier broadcast.1:01The fire happened Saturday, October 17th at about 4 in the afternoon.1:05The dates circulating differ by a day.1:07October 18th was the date of the military's initial announcements.1:11The incident itself occurred the previous afternoon.1:14The soldiers were conducting live munitions training involving the 3rd Battalion,1:18Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry.1:20The affected activity was Charlie Company's training.1:22Different participant figures describe potentially different parts of the exercise,1:26so they don't tell us how many people were exposed to the flames.1:29Sergeant Morgan Wong was from Edmonton.1:31Private Sean Farrell was from Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.1:35Private Aidan Goulding was from North Vancouver, British Columbia.1:39Private Hayden Lecamark was from Langley, British Columbia.1:42Their families had been notified.1:44Goulding has been identified as both Aida and Aiden.1:48The Fuller identification names him as Aiden Goulding.1:51Wong has also been associated with the Loyal Edmonton Regiment.1:54Taking part in this exercise doesn't tell us each soldier's permanent regiment.1:58The military's confirmed death toll remains four.2:01A higher figure of seven has circulated, but the military hasn't announced2:05additional deaths.2:06The four soldiers identified are the people whose deaths have been confirmed.2:09Major General Wade Rutland said the grass fire was about a kilometer away and2:13considered sufficiently under control for training to continue.2:16A sudden wind shift then drove flames toward the soldiers and the range2:20administrative area.2:21Rutland described flames moving about a kilometer in roughly 30 seconds.2:25Other preliminary descriptions put the interval at 30 to 60 seconds.2:30Those are recollections of a rapidly changing emergency.2:33They give a sense of how little warning soldiers had rather than a measured fire2:36speed.2:37Regional warnings and accounts described Alberta gusts up to 100 kilometers an hour.2:42That doesn't tell us the wind speed beside the soldiers when the fire turned.2:45Earlier descriptions of lighter winds concern different conditions or times.2:49Investigators have to connect the changing weather with the fire's position, the2:52terrain and vegetation, and where troops could find protection.2:55The safety decision remains unexplained beyond the commander's account that the2:59nearby fire had been judged sufficiently controlled.3:02A munition from the live training exercise may have started the grass fire.3:06That's a preliminary possibility, and officials still haven't determined the cause.3:10The possible link between that fire and the subsequent explosion also needs to be3:14resolved.3:14Early suggestions involving a gas line or well weren't supported by later3:18preliminary military assessments.3:20Officials said those assessments didn't point to oil and gas infrastructure or3:24outside interference.3:25They also reported no indication of terrorism.3:28Investigators haven't reached a final finding about the role of ammunition or other3:31ordnance.3:32Patients went from Wainwright to University of Alberta Hospital and Royal Alexandra3:36Hospital in Edmonton.3:37Red Deer Regional Hospital Center and Calgary's Foothills Medical Center also3:41received patients.3:42Alberta mobilized a medical response with assistance from Saskatchewan.3:46The response used 22 ground ambulances, six planes, and two helicopters.3:51That's 30 units altogether, including eight medical aircraft, hospitals activated3:56Code Orange, a mass casualty alert that calls for extra staff, available beds, and4:00preparations for an exceptional influx of patients.4:03Health officials ended the Code Orange alert Sunday afternoon.4:07That stood down the hospital's surge response.4:09Critically injured patients could still need intensive treatment after the alert4:13ended, and families were still waiting for news about their loved ones.4:16The fire spread beyond the military training area into the surrounding municipal4:20district.4:21The rural district and the town of Wainwright are separate places.4:24Late Saturday accounts described property and critical infrastructure as protected,4:28with no residential evacuation order in place.4:31The municipal notice described the fire as being held with a fire watch monitoring4:36changing conditions.4:37It asked people to avoid the incident area and keep roads clear.4:41That dated notice doesn't provide a Monday all clear or say the fire was4:45extinguished.4:46The investigation involves the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service,4:49military police, the military's fire marshal team, and the RCMP.4:54Fifty investigators were reportedly deployed.4:56A formal board of inquiry has been described as likely, but officials haven't4:59announced that one has been convened.5:01The House of Commons held a moment of silence Monday, followed by party leaders'5:05tributes.5:06Prime Minister Mark Carney described Canada as united in grief.5:10Canadian flags were ordered to half-mast at federal buildings across the country.5:13European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen offered condolences to the5:18service members' families.5:19In Wainwright, Conservative leader Pierre Poileva spoke about soldiers helping5:23others in danger.5:25He described individual acts of bravery that investigators have yet to reconstruct.5:29King Charles and Queen Camilla, the NATO Military Committee and the United States5:33Ambassador, also sent condolences.5:35Officials said finding the cause could take weeks.5:38They haven't set a public findings date.5:40The ignition and the decision to continue training beside the fire remain under5:44investigation.קריאת הכתבהציר הזמן של הסיפורHeyDexהסרטון הקצר ↗מי דיווח על
