It should be noted that the relevant authorities have not yet revealed any details relating to the ongoing investigations, nor any preliminary clues that could explain how the fire broke out in the current weather conditions.
The strange thing is that the fire coincided with rains falling in the area, which played a central role in its rapid extinguishment. Rain in the area helped contain the fire and prevent it from spreading further. However, the question that arises is: why did the fire break out at a time when climatic factors were far from those usually experienced by forests in times of drought and high temperatures?
Despite the efforts of firefighters, water and forestry who were able to control the fire Monday morning January 6, work is still underway to determine the causes which led to its outbreak. Authorities also confirmed that there is an inventory of forest areas affected by the fire, but the full picture of the situation remains unclear.
The authorities concerned, notably the Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Forests, are continuing their investigations into the incident, but the silence on the real causes raises concerns and questions about the existence of other factors which could be at fault. the origin of the fire, whether human or natural. .
It should be noted that the forests of northern Morocco, including that of Tetouan, have experienced a notable increase in the incidence of fires in recent years, whether due to climatic factors or illegal acts such as arson. . This is what makes the current fire in Tetouan suspicious, especially in the absence of immediate official clarifications.
Until Monday evening, the mystery remains around this fire until investigations reveal the circumstances of its outbreak. In the meantime, many questions remain as to whether this fire was just an accident or if there are other reasons.
