A river passing through a forest can prevent a forest fire from jumping across the firebreak.
yes if something generates enough heat
The maximum firebreak required around magazine ventilators is typically 30 feet. This distance helps to reduce the risk of a fire spreading to the magazine and causing an explosion due to the presence of explosive materials stored inside.

It's called back-burning. Forest fire officers wait for the wind to change and then they light a fire which burns up the undergrowth forming a firebreak. Then when the fire comes back towards the firebreak there's nothing to burn, so it can't cross over the firebreak. This stops the fire spreading.
A fire triangle consist of Fuel (Bushes), Heat (Fire) and Oxygen and the three combine creates a chemical chain reaction.In this case the fuel is removed so if there is nothing to burn you have no fire.
A firebreak or fireroad is a gap in vegetation or other combustible material that is expected to slow or stop the progress of a wildfire. A firebreak may be a road - from a jeep trail to a freeway - or a path of removed vegetation along a ridge that is intended for no other purpose. Forested areas are often riddled with networks of firebreaks. For firebreaks to be effective they have to be backed up with other firefighting efforts. Even then it is sometimes not enough. During the worst of the fire season in southern California, Santa Ana winds will blow carpets of burning embers across eight-lane freeways without a pause. During the 1988 fires in Yellowstone National Park, smoking embers managed to cross the Lewis Canyon, a natural canyon up to a mile wide and 600 feet (180 m) deep. The world's most expensive firebreak was created when the whole street of Van Ness was dynamited to stop the spread of fire resulting from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake/
When cutting trees during a forest fire, the vegetation is cleared to create a firebreak, a barrier that helps stop or slow the spread of the fire. By removing trees and creating a buffer zone, firefighters can better control the fire and prevent it from spreading further.
In "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry," the fire was put out by the black community members who formed a bucket brigade. The fire was eventually stopped when Mr. Morrison, the Logans' friend and protector, arrived and used a sledgehammer to create a firebreak, preventing the fire from spreading further.
