Firefighters on Thursday were tackling a fire in Alassa, which was raging on five fronts.
Five fire engines of the service were in the rugged area near the Alassa community in Limassol as well as two fire engines from the forestry department.
Authorities received the call a few minutes after 11am, alerting them to the flames.
Over two hours later, the blaze was raging in five different fronts, with about 1km distance from each other, fire service spokesman Andreas Kettis said.
He added that only the four fronts are under control, noting that strong winds are making fire fighters’ efforts more difficult.
