Morocco Deploys Aircraft and Helicopters for Forest Firefighting
Morocco has deployed aerial reinforcements to combat wildfires, including the mobilization of eight "Canadair" aircraft, 15 "Turbo Thrush" airplanes, and two "Super Puma" helicopters operated by the Royal Gendarmerie. The intervention plan categorizes fires into four levels, with ground teams handling small fires, while aircraft are used for the second and third levels, and international support can be requested for the most complex cases. "Canadair" aircraft are capable of collecting over 6,000 liters of water in approximately 12 seconds, and the "Super Puma" and "Turbo Thrush" helicopters provide flexible support, capable of operating for long hours. Sources emphasize the importance of ongoing readiness of crews and technical teams, alongside maintenance carried out by Moroccan experts to increase fleet self-sufficiency. The field network also collaborates with over 2,800 forest monitors and guards for early warning, forming a unified system aimed at containing wildfires and preventing their spread.
