The blaze, known as Plaza Sur, has burned at least 470 hectares near the Claro Arena stadium, though no homes or critical infrastructure have been affected. Strong winds and limited water access have hampered firefighting efforts, but authorities say the fire’s intensity is decreasing while containment work continues.
