A First Alert Dispatch was issued for the localities of Portalegre, Campo Maior, and São João Baptista. The alert was declared due to an agricultural nature situation, which suggests the occurrence of a fire in an agricultural or vegetation area in these regions.
The emergency response device has 15 operatives deployed to the location. Additionally, 4 ground resources were mobilized to support the combat and containment operations.
However, no aerial resources were activated for this occurrence, which may indicate that the situation has not yet reached dimensions that justify this type of reinforcement or that conditions are not favorable for its use.
The alert covers three localities, all situated in the Portalegre district, in the Alentejo region, an area frequently affected by rural fires, especially during the hottest months of the year.
