Does anyone know whether the systems connected to the fire handle are those apparently damaged in this A380?

I've not seen it stated whether the crew pulled the #1 fire handle in an attempt to shut it down.

It may well have worked but on the other hand it's overkill for an engine that's not on fire and can be shut down with a fire hose.
