The delegate of the Andalusian government in Almería, Aránzazu Martín, has advanced that the forest fire that affects the Sierra de Huércal de Almería, declared in the early hours “As much as possible.”
Martín has specified that they work in the stabilization of the fire 150 troops, as well as three helicopters and three pel -bomb trucks, and added that two government -type aerial means of the government are also incorporated, which are attached to the autonomous communities. On the other hand, he explained that the origin of the fire was due to a dry storm that downloaded a series of rays on Saturday night.
Due to the strong winds since it is a “complicated” area, of a mining nature, the delegate of the Board has specified in attention to media this morning, in Alhama de Almería, they hinder “in some way” the work to fight against fire.
However, Martín has moved “a message of absolute tranquility”, and has indicated that yesterday “there was no danger at any danger for nearby populations, although mainly at night the fire is quite scandalous.” As a more outstanding measure, it must be remembered that the Civil Guard reported that one twenty neighbors in Gádor was preventively evicted.
The representative of the Andalusian Government in the province stressed that last Saturday was “a magnificent work by the device.” “They were controlling a series of flanks and that has allowed us that today we can say that the fire is evolving favorably,” he celebrated. Thus, he wanted that “when the day ends, and we have to remove the aerial media again, we can talk about a situation evidently much better.”
He has also sent a message of “caution” so that he does not go to the area. “That is the only thing it does is not only to put yourself in danger, but mainly harm the work that the infoca is carrying,” said Aránzazu Martín, who explained that, for the moment, “there is nothing that leads us” to raise the pre -emergence phase, operational situation 0, of the emergency plan in the face of the risk of forest fires in Andalusia, activated from 22.37 hours today.
After an intense work, “where we have focused our efforts on the north flank,” he explained in ‘X’ Infoca, this fire extinction service works in the area with more than 150 professionals and three air media. Together, these are three helicopters (one semi -marked and two superpumas), three pumper trucks, 14 forest fire groups, four fire reinforcement brigades (Brica), five operations technicians, a special supervision cash, two logistics and three environmental agents, as well as a medical forest fire unit (UMIF).
