Thirty municipalities spread across six districts of mainland Portugal are at maximum fire danger, according to information released today.
The affected districts are Bragança, Guarda, Castelo Branco, Santarém, Portalegre and Faro. In these regions, meteorological conditions create an extremely high risk of fire ignition and spread.
The maximum danger warning means that any activity that may cause sparks or flames should be avoided, since the fire risk is considered critical in these areas.
This information is particularly relevant for local populations and authorities, who should reinforce prevention and surveillance measures during the highest risk period.
