All pax escaped via the slides, 1 person light injured.

My translation using Afrikaans as a basis:
A fire broke out at Schipol on board a Transavia aircraft. All occupants managed to escape the aircraft, which was ready to depart, by the escape slides. Further details developing.
After Monday and Tuesday even the calendar says WTF...
