More than 800 operatives were mobilized since 07:30 to fight two rural fires in the municipality of Proença-a-Nova, in the district of Castelo Branco. The information was confirmed by the National Authority for Emergency and Civil Protection (ANEPC).
The two fires were burning simultaneously in the same municipality, requiring a great effort of human and material resources to try to control the flames in the rural areas of the region.
The mobilization of more than 800 firefighters represents a significant firefighting deployment, reflecting the gravity of the situation and the need to respond to multiple active foci simultaneously in the same geographic area.
