Moments of apprehension in Iglesias due to a fire that broke out at the gates of the city, in the area between Campo Pisano and Monteponi .
The alarm was raised in the early afternoon and the wind immediately raised fears of the worst because it pushed the flames up to the houses in the area that were evacuated as a precaution . The fire also grazed a gas cylinder depot . Numerous ground teams were deployed, supported by a helicopter that, with water jets from above, helped to contain the fire .
As with other fires in the area, Carbonia first and foremost in recent days, the absence of the helicopter at the Marganai base is weighing heavily , a fact that in recent months has sparked protests by mayors and firefighters. A protest that is unfortunately in vain.
