Description
Spanish firefighters have managed to stabilise the bulk of a huge wildfire raging for over a week on the holiday island of Tenerife, allowing more evacuated residents to return to their homes. "I just came home today and found it perfectly fine. Thank God the fire has not reached it and let's hope it stays that way," Tenerife resident Fernando Rivero tells AFP. About 300 firefighters and soldiers backed by 18 water-dropping aircraft are battling the blaze, which broke out late August 15 in an area of steep ravines and cliffs in the northeast of the island, part of Spain's Canary Islands.
