Firefighters are working today, Friday, to put out a fire that started in a cabin at the Madre del Agua camp in Granadilla de Abona, Tenerife. So far, no one has been hurt, and officials say there's no risk of the fire spreading to the nearby forest. This information comes from the Canary Islands Government's Security and Emergency Coordinating Center.
The incident began around 6:38 AM this morning when the emergency services (Cecoes 112) received a call about the fire. Crews are still working to put out the blaze, which is affecting one camp cabin and some nearby trees. Again, no one has been injured.
