The Generalitat Firefighters have been working since this morning against a vegetation fire declared at 12:45 in the municipality of Lladurs (Solsonès) affecting the Santa Eulàlia area, where the fire has been gaining intensity. However, around 17:00, the same Firefighters reported that they have already managed to reduce the intensity of the fire, so they have begun to withdraw some of the resources assigned to this fire. The fire, the Firefighters add, is surrounded, so its capacity to spread has been diminished.

This fire coincides with the forest fire declared on July 8 in the Pla de Manlleu, between Aiguamúrcia and Sant Jaume dels Domenys (Tarragona), of similar characteristics, which initially forced about 500 people to be confined through the Es-Alert system and affected 89 hectares, of which 74 were forest and 15 agricultural, according to provisional data from the Rural Agents.
It is worth remembering that the fire, of high intensity, in the Aiguamúrcia area, was stabilized the next day and later controlled, although the Firefighters maintained a ground operation for several days to extinguish hot spots and prevent flare-ups.

Regarding the Lladurs fire, in Solsonès, the Firefighters explained that the fire, located in the Collet dels Lladres area, advances through a difficult-to-access area. The forces have concentrated their efforts on forcefully attacking the left flank, which was the one presenting greater intensity, while the aerial means made drops over the tail of the right flank.
Later, the body reported that the fire has topped the slope and is now descending towards the valley bottom. Despite the difficulties of the terrain, the teams have managed to reach the head of the fire with a water line and have increased the operation to 26 crews.
