The Government of Navarre has restricted agricultural activities on land from Friday due to the risk of fire
The decision was taken in the wake of the huge fire that broke out on Thursday in the vicinity of Mount Ezkaba, which required the cooperation of firefighters from seven parks, who had to allocate all the means available to put out the fire in the Foral Community of Navarre, which was about to strain emergency and civil protection equipment.
Fire on a farmland, this Thursday, in Lerín.
Due to the climate situation in Navarre and the fire in Makirrian, the Government of Navarre, through its Counsellor for the Interior, Public Service and Justice, Inma Jurio, has issued a Foral Order from 11 a.m. this Friday to reduce agricultural activities on land, as well as forestry work in the Pyrenean, Central, Southern and Ebro regions of the Foral Community.
Several fires broke out on Thursday in Ledea, Murillo el Cuende, Etxalar, Lumbier, Larraioz, Noain, Melida, Caparroso and Lerín.
In the afternoon, a major fire broke out in the vicinity of Mount Ezkaba, affecting villages such as Unzu, Navaz, Makirrian, Zildotz, Anoz and Usi, which required the assistance of firefighters from seven parks (Cordovilla, Trinitarios, Estella, Sangüesa, Tudela, Peralta and Lodosa), and all means of extinguishing fire in the Foral Community for Navarre.
The Government of Navarre has explained that this fire has caused a great deal of tension in the emergency and civil protection teams, so it has been necessary to activate the Special Plan for Forest Fire Civil Protection (INFONA) of the Foral Community of Navarre at level 2. The Emergency Advisory Council has also met to monitor the situation and its development.
The meeting of the Emergency Advisory Council was chaired by the Counsellor for Affairs, Public Service and Justice, Inma Jurío Berne, and attended by the Director-General for Internal Affairs, Salvador Díez, the Director-General for the Environment, Ana Bretaña, and technicians from the Civil Protection, Fire, Health, Environment and Foral Police.
