This handout picture courtesy of the Greenville Professional Firefighters Association taken on February 27, 2024, shows a fire truck driving towards the Smokehouse Creek Fire, near Amarillo, in the Texas Panhandle. US nuclear weapons plant Pantex said it was "open for normal day shift operations" on February 28, 2024 after a pause due to wildfires in Texas. The Texas A&M Forest Service, meanwhile, reported early Wednesday that 25 of 31 fires in the state were under control, though the largest blaze -- known as the Smokehouse Creek Fire -- had burnt 300,000 acres and remained uncontained.

l Texas brucia ed è alle prese con il secondo maggiore incendio della sua storia dopo quello del 2006. I pompieri sono all’opera nel tentativo di contenere le fiamme ma i forti venti complicano la loro attività.
Molte persone sono state fatte evacuare per motivi di sicurezza. Al momento non è ancora chiaro quanti danni siano stati causati dall’incendio.
