哥伦比亚托利马省本月发生的森林火灾已烧毁近3万公顷土地,摧毁50栋房屋及近8000公顷农田,未造成人员死亡1。托利马省省长Adriana Matiz表示,有“严重线索”表明破坏者引发了部分火灾1。当地视频显示,有男子骑摩托车在部分地区纵火,且当地消防部门报告称其中一起火灾使用了汽油1。Matiz指出,武装团体可能利用火灾转移执法部门对犯罪集团从金矿获利的战略区域的注意力1。
托利马省本月气温异常偏高,部分地区比平均气温高2摄氏度以上,降雨量比正常水平低30%1。哥伦比亚总统Abelardo de la Espriella已要求执法部门展开调查,并向美国和智利政府请求支援灭火1。
Forest fires that have swept through Colombia's Tolima department this month have burned nearly 30,000 hectares (74,131 acres) of land, destroyed 50 homes, and razed almost 8,000 hectares of farmland, with no fatalities reported 1. President Abelardo de la Espriella has ordered law enforcement to investigate the fires and requested firefighting support from the governments of the United States and Chile 1.
Tolima Governor Adriana Matiz stated there are "serious leads" suggesting that vandals intentionally ignited some of the fires 1. Local videos show men on motorcycles setting fires in certain areas, and the local fire department reported that gasoline was used in at least one incident 1. Authorities suspect that armed groups might be using the fires to divert law enforcement attention from strategic areas where criminal groups profit from gold mining 1. The suspected arson occurs amid abnormal weather conditions in Tolima this month, with temperatures in some areas more than 2 degrees Celsius above average and rainfall 30% below normal levels 1.
