Forest fire in Algarve less intense

The destructive forest fire that has been raging in the Algarve for a week is on its way.

However, the fight has not yet been fought. Because there are several 'hot spots', the flames can flare up again, especially when the wind is increasing. Prime Minister Antonio Costa warned 24 hours earlier that it could take days before the fire would be under control. The digging of firebreaks with bulldozers has been successful during the night hours. That work goes on Thursday night.
