Hell breaks loose in the forests of Morelos and Hidalgo
The Secretary of Sustainable Development has raised a cry of alarm: five forest fires are roaring with fury in the municipalities of Tepoztlán, Tlalnepantla, Tetela del Volcán, Cuernavaca and Miacatlán. These territories, sacred for their ecological wealth in the Ajusco Chichinautzin corridor, are today devoured by flames in a tragedy that threatens the green lung of the region.
The battle against fire: an unequal combat
In Oztopulco, Tepoztlán, the flames have been 100% tamed, but their shadow still persists with 95% liquidation. Meanwhile, in Tlalnepantla, the south of Teconzin burns under 90% control, but the danger has not been eradicated. The earth cries in the face of so much devastation!
But the horror doesn’t end there. On Cerro Dos Bolas, Miacatlán, the brigades fight tooth and nail, achieving barely 25% control and a paltry 15% suffocation. The fire advances relentlessly! Meanwhile, in Tetela del Volcán, the Apapaxco area is witnessing a forestry accident with 80% control, but the flames still resist with 50% liquidation.
And in Cuernavaca, all hell breaks loose in Norte Villa Santiago, where the combat is fierce and control is conspicuous by its absence. Zero percent! The authorities remain silent about the devastated surface, the charred bushes and the number of anonymous heroes who face this nightmare.
Hidalgo: 60 hours of agony and bravery
Meanwhile, in Hidalgo, the municipality of Tlahuiltepa is experiencing its own ordeal. After 60 hours of a titanic battle, the fire that threatened the communities of Zaragoza and Acapa is 90% controlled, but the flames have not yet given up, with 70% extinction. The treacherous terrain and devilish winds have turned this fight into an epic!
The authorities reveal with a trembling voice that, in this infernal season, more than one hundred fires have hit the region. Governor Julio Menchaca does not hesitate to describe it as a serious situation, imploring the population to avoid actions that could unleash more tragedies.
But in the midst of desperation, a ray of hope emerges: brave women from Acapa, carrying jugs of water on their backs, climbed to the most critical areas to support the brigades. Anonymous heroines in a war against fire!
