Fires continue in Colombia: air quality worsens in Bogotá and Petro declares a state of calamity. 17,000 hectares of vegetation have already been lost due to the fire, which is equivalent to 25,000 soccer fields.
Fire outbreaks also affect areas in Ecuador. Meanwhile, the fight against a fire that started on the El Ángel ecological reserve, in the province of Carchi, north of the country, is being carried out on land. Some 198 firefighters from six locations participate in combat tasks.
