扑灭的四川森林火灾现在进入清理阶段
At 3 pm on Tuesday, the forest fire in Yajiang county, Sichuan province, was under control. There were no more open flames at the site, so some of the firefighters left.
Now, the main work is to clean up and guard the area to make sure the fire doesn't start again. The forest fire headquarters(指挥部)in the county said this. Even though the big flames were gone, there were still some small fires deep inside the ground. This was because there was dead plants and wooden remains that was still burning. Strong winds and dry weather could make these small fires spread again, so it was very important to clean and guard the area, the Sichuan Forest Fire Brigade(四川省森林消防队)said.
The forest fire started near Baizi village on March 15. It spread quickly because of strong winds the next day. There were three main parts of the fire, and it was hard to control because the wind changed directions and spread the fire in different ways. The wildfire created a lot of smoke. When the smoke cleared a little on March 17, helicopters flew in to help put out the fire, according to the local government.
Yajiang is in the south of the Garze Tibetan autonomous prefecture(甘孜藏族自治州). The land there is very complex with steep hillsides and deep valleys. There is no highway at the site and the mountain slope is very steep. Firefighters had to carry all their things on their backs.
After the fire, all 3,396 people from 11 villages in the county were moved to safe places. No one died in the fire. The Garze prefecture forest and grassland prevention and control office said the fire was caused by someone using fire at a building site.
