150 firefighters came to the end of the flames which covered three hectares in the Regagnas massif, near the Douronne district in Auriol. The fire broke out on Thursday afternoon and significant resources have been mobilized given the proximity of homes. Four Canadair and four water bomber helicopters have been used. This ensured that there were no casualties or material damage.
The flooding operations of the night bore fruit. The fire is extinguished.
The cause of the accident remains unknown.
