Apocalyptic scenes - fire evacuees

(ANSA) - Calci, September 25 - Some of the people evacuated from the homes in the province of Pisa due to a huge forest fire overnight said Tuesday that they witnessed apocalyptic scenes.
    "The firefighters were our angels," said Paola, who spent the night at a reception centre set up inside a gym in the town of Calci.
    "It was an apocalyptic scene and luckily they brought us here to safety. "I hope this fire was caused by carelessness because I can't imagine anyone would be so bad, would have such a perverse mind (to start it deliberately).
    "There are whole olive groves that have been destroyed and huge damage. I fear homes have gone too".
