Ariana: Efforts to extinguish Mount Ennahli fire continue

Firefighters are still trying to extinguish the fire that reignited on Monday in Mount Ennahli, near the Maherzia neighbourhood (Ariana governorate).

Although the fire was brought under control early Monday morning, it reignited due to strong winds, said Civil Protection spokesperson Colonel Moez Triaa.

14 fire trucks were mobilised to rescue the locals, as well as a C-130 Hercules equipped with liquid substances to contain the fire and limit its spread, Colonel Triaa told TAP.

The causes of the fire are still unknown, the same source said.
