Fire next to the sports field in Inca: A firefighter injured — what now?

Answer

Why do fires in Mallorca become more dangerous during dry, hot weather?

Dry grass, brush, and neglected edges can ignite quickly in Mallorca when temperatures are high and humidity is low. Even a small spark can spread fast, especially near roads, sports areas, or residential land where fuel builds up. That is why prevention and quick reporting matter so much in summer.
