Here are more details of the fire last week
The Raw Story | Forest fire destroys 1,500 hectares in Portugal

Apparently Portugal has asked the EU for help and several countrys have donated firefighting aircraft. They have also requested help with more advanced training.

In our area a lot of the firefighting force is made up of volunteers that have to rush from work or home whenever the alarm goes out.
