Paphos People

now as viewed from Chloraka there appears to be a fire in Kathikas area , hope i am wrong ! Its only yesterday there was a big fire in Gioulou at the dog sanctuary. With it getting dark sure i can just see maybe flames , but at this distance !

Update , i see flames !

Yes, there was a fire in the community of Kathikas which was brought under control.
The fire burned an area of 1 hectare with wild vegetation.
14 people from the Forestry Department with 3 fire engines and 4 people from the Fire Service with 2 fire engines and 2 people from the Game and Wildlife Service with 1 fire engine participated in extinguishing the fire.

Google translate from an article from Sigma live.

After the glow of the flames was visible from here the fire seemed to disappear quite fast , i can only assume the fire fighting services did an excellent job

Was all the dogs/animal at the sanctuary saved

I believe 3 to 4 dogs died and a couple suffered smoke inhalation, many were let go to save them and were found by the next morning . It seems EVERYTHING was destroyed, so a long recovery time !
