Aerial equipment and eight firefighters fight fire in Ribeira Brava

A forest fire that broke out this morning is mobilizing eight members of the Ribeira Brava and Ponta do Sol Mixed Fire Department and also the air force of the Regional Civil Protection Service.

The fire is consuming a forest area in São Paulo, with a front that is difficult to access by land, which is why the fight is being carried out by helicopter.

According to the JM, it was the head of service of this corporation who saw a column of smoke at 7 am, having alerted the forest guard to the suspicion, who, however, confirmed the existence of a fire.
