In Traslasierra, more than 1,500 hectares (3,706 acres) have burned in recent days. Firefighters are still working
A fire in the mountains that has been active for at least five days is the main concern in Córdoba.
This is a forest fire in Guasapampa, in the Valle de Traslasierra, which has already devoured more than 1,500 hectares and still hasn't been fully contained by firefighters.
The weather, with high temperatures, strong winds, and very low humidity, is also causing concern.
The forecast predicts rain for the weekend, so only then will some relief arrive.
According to the authorities, the fire is developing in a very hard-to-reach area.
Every day, firefighters are transported by helicopter to reach the affected areas.
Personnel from Volunteer Firefighters, ETAC, and Fire Management are working together at the site.
The aerial operation included four water-bombing planes belonging to the province and the National Fire Management System, as well as a national helicopter that is carrying out water drops and providing logistical support to the crews on the ground.
If any smoke column is detected, immediate notice must be given by calling 0800-888-FUEGO (38346) or the numbers 911 (emergencies) and 100 (firefighters).
