Activation reason:
On the 9th August 2022, a wildfire broke in Socerb hill (Municipality of Koper), located near the south-eastern city of Trieste, in Italy. The flames are not yet under control, due to strong wind spreading the fire downhill towards the villages of Osp in Slovenia and Prebenico in Italy. Approximately 100 firefighters and the Slovenian Armed Forces have made two helicopters available to manage the fire. Conversely, a canadair water bomber has been used and at the moment 2 helicopters are being used on the Italian side. The Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping service was requested to provide reference, first estimate, delineation and grading products.
