Afternoon of fire and fear in the countryside between Assemini and San Sperate, in the locality of Sa Cannada, along the Statale 130.
A large fire, fueled by the high temperatures and the taut mistral wind , with the flames that went as far as to lick the houses scattered in the area.
Several houses were evacuated, with residents forced to anxiously follow the extinguishing operations.
A helicopter and numerous fire brigade teams were on site.
Two days ago, not far away, in the locality of Sa Traia, another fire had occurred: some dogs and chickens had died in the flames.
