There's fire in them thar hills..... (Mijas) - 07/19/01 09:34 AM
Unfortunately, there is a major fire raging in the hills around Mijas on the Costa del Sol at the moment. It began last night and with strong winds blowing they still have not been able to bring it under control. (It's now 3pm).
Many people have been evacuated and even on the coast in Fuengirola, the sun has been dulled by the smoke and a layer of black ash is settling on the streets. Let's hope that it has not caused too much major damage to the environment and more importantly, that no harm befalls anyone.
