Fire in a storage shed in Salento

A significant fire broke out in Salento, in the warehouses of a storage facility in the municipality of Trepuzzi, in the province of Lecce, Italy. Firefighters intervened to extinguish the flames, but the surrounding air became unbreathable due to the smoke. The city mayor issued a statement on social media, advising citizens to remain indoors, closing doors and windows, and avoiding the affected area. This was to minimise the risks associated with the possible spread of smoke and pollutants. No further details have been released at this time.
