Ximo Puig had already warned about it when he stated that the Bejís fire was still very dormant and that it could reignite with a change of wind. And so it has been. In principle, and around 12 noon, a column of smoke has warned about the evolution of the fire that has been burning the Alto Palancia region since last Monday. This time, in the municipality of Altura, very close to the natural area of ​​the Cueva Santa, -a particularly beloved sanctuary in the area-, now threatened by the forest fire. The latest data provided by Firefighters of Castellón confirm that the fire is approaching the sanctuary of the Holy Cave. In fact, it seems that the flame front is engulfing the area. The efforts of the extinction team are now focused on trying to stop this advance and prevent the flames from continuing south along the road that connects Altura with Cueva Santa. As reported by 112CV through its twitter account, 36 aerial means of the Generalitat and aerial units of the Ministry of Ecological Transition are working on the Bejís fire. In addition, the Red Cross has been asked to install a shelter in Villar del Arzobispo to accommodate people evicted from the districts of Andilla. In turn, as reported by the Advanced Command Post this afternoon, the residents of Alcublas have been confined before the fire advances to the south. The situation of the fire has become complicated by mid-afternoon on Thursday, so once again the Advanced Command Post has also decided to confine Andilla, as well as evict the districts of Oset, Artaj and La Pobleta belonging to this town.
