The mayor has confirmed that there is no personal injury and praised the efforts of the neighbours to extinguish the fire, which has burned more than 400 hectares.
Ezkabarte is returning to normal after going through the worst moments of the forest fire that broke out this Thursday and stabilized on Sunday. More than a hundred people have participated in the operation, supported by many of the area's citizens, and Mayor Pedro Lezaun\u00A0is "very proud" of them .
"Their involvement has been fundamental," said Lezaun, adding that "these kinds of accidents unite and mobilize." He also praised the work of farmers who have helped with tractors , as well as all neighbors who have helped asfar as possible "by bringing water or making sandwiches" .
As a result of the fire, residents of three villages had to leave their homes and more than 400 hectares have been burned, but Lezaun has confirmed that therehas been no personal injury. "Material, fences and other elements have been burned in the mountains, but most of thevegetation has been burned ".
However, he has been quite optimistic about the recovery of this plot and has highlighted the role that indigenous vegetation plays in this type of event, preventing the spread of fire while other trees outside the area do the opposite.
The mayor has also talked about the need to keep the mountain clean, pointing out that livestock is a key partof this work, but that its presence has been reduced in recent years. In any case, he has assessed the public aid that exists to promote the adaptation of the troughs and other infrastructures necessary for the maintenance of livestock on the mountain.
With regard tothe causes of the fire , Lezaun has stated that it is still under investigation, "although it was ruled out that it was caused by agricultural work."
