In the Bouches-du-Rhône, another fire ravaged 1,000 hectares near Avignon. The fire that broke out on Thursday July 14 between Tarascaon and Graveson was fixed. Vigilance remains essential, as Michel explains Aliaga, live from Graveson.

Friday July 15, the fire in Graveson (Bouches-du-Rhône) started the day before has been fixed. But caution is still required due to worrying weather conditions. In addition to “the drought, it hasn’t rained in the department for long weeks; and the mistral, not very strong, but present and which will last for two to three days. This is what worries the firefighters”specifies Michel Aliaga, live from Graveson.

Firefighters from eight neighboring departments came to help. The fire is fixed, but not yet under control. “It should last according to the authorities we met a few minutes ago. Despite this, the municipality decided to evacuate a housing estate which was 300 meters from the first flames”, says the journalist. As a security measure, residents will sleep in the town’s gymnasium tonight.
