Good morning and welcome to PORTUGAL DECODED. Portugal observes today a national mourning day for the fires that ravaged the country since last Sunday. Sadly, this won't be the last time it happens.
Very good article, very nuanced. I want to add one thing: everybody says the fires started sunday but we had a terrifing fridaynight and saturday in the Nelas area. I woke up at 1.30 h and through my rear window I saw a blazing fire🔥😱 It went on all night and the next morning it started on the other side of the village.
Excellent article explaining the issues in such a simple way. Thank you for all that you do for this weekly newspaper.
Excellent sharing of information clear & accurate much needed
The piece on the fires & land management the issues faced outstanding
Especially in a week that has been marred by tragedy where emotions are running high & the finger of blame is pointing
Thank you we need this
A really excellent round up of many many thanks!
