Siliana Mount Marqeb Fire Mostly Contained
The forest officers and relevant units managed to control over 98% of the Mount Marqab fire in Siliana, which broke out on Wednesday after spreading from a fire on Mount Anqaa in Jendouba. Firefighting efforts continued over three days, involving military aircraft and fire trucks from various regions, due to the rugged terrain and dense vegetation that caused the fire to expand. There were no significant human or material losses, but the fire caused extensive damage to forested areas, damaged beekeeping structures, and caused the collapse of one house. Livestock was secured and kept away from danger. Cooling operations are ongoing, and later on, specialists will determine the extent of the damage and the types of plants affected.
