Around 100 people evacuated their homes in the Altofonte area of Palermo, Sicily, on August 30 due to a wildfire burning since August 29.

Local news reports said fires broke out in five different areas at around 9 pm on August 29.

Fire officials said on Twitter that Canadair aircraft joined firefighting efforts from dawn on August 30.
