Castelforte, zona Tralla Wildfire Risk: Should I Travel?

Reports of a woodland and scrub fire in the Tralla area of Castelforte on 6 August, fought with a Canadair and a helicopter and reported beaten by late afternoon. One outlet carries it.

Short answer: Latina News reported on 6 August that a fire took hold in the Tralla area of Castelforte, in the province of Latina, burning woodland and Mediterranean scrub. It reported that the fire had been set overnight and that arson was suspected, that the front had grown by Thursday morning, and that the Castelforte fire station worked much of the day alongside civil protection volunteers. A Canadair made repeated drops and a helicopter joined in the afternoon. The same report said the flames were only beaten late in the day. No evacuation was reported and no road closure was reported. Only that one outlet carries any of this, so it is written here as reports rather than as settled fact, and there is burnt ground here dated 3 August that the report does not account for.
