Sunday July 24, the journalist Nicolas Bidard was live from the area of The-Teste-de-Buch in order to take stock of the situation of the two fires that have hit the Gironde since July 12.
Saturday July 23 afternoon, the fire of The-Teste-de-Buch (Gironde) has been officially fixed, “that is to say that, barring an accident, the flames can no longer progress. But we must now control the fire because there are still hot spots”explains Nicholas Bidardlive from the sector of The-Test. Below the ground, the fire continues to smolder, hence the smoke rising from it.
“The firefighters therefore remain mobilized. They spray the ground with water but also with a foaming product, with a wetter effect. A long-term job awaits them since they still have to monitor 7,000 ha of forest”reports the journalist. On the side of the other fire, Landiras, “we are still not at this stage”. The fire is still not fixed there. The work of the firefighters should therefore continue for several more days.
