Another episode of the intense spring of fireworks in Catalonia. Eight units of the Generalitat Fire Brigade are working this Monday against a declared forest fire in the town of Martorell.

As explained by the firefighters through their communication channels, the fire is located near the Pou del Merli urbanization. They received the notice at 1:45 p.m. in the afternoon. In addition, they have activated air resources.

The Town Hall of the town of Baix Llobregat has reported that the area affected "is limited by the area of ​​the old toll booth". "It burns little by little on the right slope," said the Consistory.
