It could easily end in tragedy... (photos)

What looked like one of the usual little bush fires in the area went very quick out of control and only thanks to the quick response of various fire planes the fight was won after 5 hours... bravo for the coordinated work.
how it started 1.30 PM in fields between Amargeti and old Pentalia.
not only helicopter but also the small yellow planes with chemicals started their fight
I know how terrifying from own experience in the past it is, when a large fire comes closer and closer to your property...
old Pentalia surrounded from smoke and fire now, frightening !!
helicopter trying their best
but it seems to me that chemicals work better
and the fires looked smaller when suddenly very black clouds appeared...
something different must have happened at this place, I hope it was not a house on fire
Luckily after another 2 hours no more smoke and it looked OK now, just in time before dawn. The small planes were still in the air... checking until it was really too dark to fly.
