Fire in Beja municipality given as controlled

Rádio Campanário13 September 2026 at 11:58

A fire broke out on Saturday afternoon in an area of scrubland and pasture in the Beja municipality, in a location known as Guarita Nova. The alert was given at 6:35 PM on Saturday and the fire was given as controlled at 10:42 AM today, about 16 hours after the initial alert, according to Civil Protection.

The Sub-regional Command of Emergency and Civil Protection of Baixo Alentejo indicated that at 11:00 AM, 92 operatives were involved in mop-up operations, supported by 31 vehicles.

During Saturday night, firefighters monitored the possibility of evacuating a location where a wedding party was taking place, but the evacuation proved unnecessary.

Why this matters

Readers in the Beja region learn that the fire was controlled, but that the firefighting operation remains active with dozens of operatives on the ground. The proximity of a wedding party, which was considered for evacuation, shows the concrete risk the fire posed to people in the area. The article allows local communities to follow the status of the situation and the ongoing work.

Rare snake surprises breeders by having two heads capable of controlling the body equally

A two-headed ball python was born at a breeding facility in Eugene, Oregon (USA), and surprised breeders by demonstrating that both brains can equally control the shared body — something rare, since in most cases of dicephaly one head tends to be dominant. Both heads can drink water, flick their tongues, and react to touch independently, with the body responding to each one. The breeder Justin Stewart, 36 years old, told Creatorzine that he doesn't know if the heads are aware of each other, but stated: "They don't seem to mind it."
