Fire at landfill site in Casarabonela

Fire broke out at a landfill site in Casarabonela at around 16:00 on Monday afternoon, thick smoke filling the air.

The fire was on a front of around 100 metres but was quickly controlled. Firemen and workers at the landfill site used bulldozers to heap dirt and sand on the fire to smother the flames and prevent toxic fumes.
