Fiery afternoon today in Capoterra. Around 2:37 PM the fire brigade operations room activated a team from the Prociv Santa Barbara association to put out a fire in the Pisighittu area. The blaze, fueled by the wind, reached old vineyards, brushwood and a cane thicket, threatening homes and greenhouses. A patrol from the Uta forestry station was also on site.

During the extinguishing operations, the Prociv team identified a second outbreak in the Is Coddus area . To deal with the emergency, additional forces were activated: a team from Grusap, one from the Misericordia of Capoterra, a departure of the Fire Brigade and a second forest patrol from Uta.

Thanks to the prompt intervention of all the teams involved, the two fires were quickly contained, seriously limiting the damage.
