HSINCHU (TVBS News) — A mountain fire that ignited on Thursday morning (March 23) on the Dalu Forest Road, a route leading to the Guanwu National Forest Recreation Area, continued to burn as of Friday (March 24) morning. 

The blaze spread over three hectares, according to media reports.

 


Fortunately, no injuries were reported as the Forestry Bureau promptly closed down the roads and the Forest Recreation Area to ensure the safety of the public. 

Firefighters worked to extinguish the fire, utilizing helicopters and the Dalu Forest Road as a firebreak to prevent the flames from spreading further.

A councilor from Hsinchu County has speculated that the lack of rain may have caused the fire, as he noted in an Instagram post. 
 


He urges the public to remain vigilant, as the dry conditions can easily lead to mountain fires ignited by just a few sparks.
