Hundreds of people have been
evacuated after a huge wild fire destroyed dozens of hectares of
forest on Monte Serra, in the province of Pisa.
The blaze was first seen at around 22:00 on Monday.
Arson is suspected to be the cause.
Strong gusts of wind that frequently change direction are
making fighting the fire even more difficult.
Canadair aircraft are being used as part of the effort to
combat the blaze.
