Ground firefighting efforts involve 35 specialized professionals and two fire engines. The operation is being supported from the air by a heavy helicopter provided by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge.
At this time, authorities have not released information regarding the causes of the fire or the total area affected by the flames.
This incident occurs during a week marked by a high number of forest fires in the province of Jaén. Recently, emergency services have had to intervene in other critical areas, such as La Aliseda, in the Despeñaperros Natural Park, where the complexity of the terrain and the intensity of the fire required the deployment of a large contingent of personnel and equipment.
