MORE fire fighters and a helicopter are now countering a fierce fire that broke out in a forest area on Tuesday in southwest China's Guangxi.
The fire control headquarters in Longlin Autonomous County in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region confirmed yesterday that the fire has burnt 93 hectares of forest and bush. The fire's 5.3-kilometer front is quickly approaching the Zhongshan National Nature Reserve where 200 protected black-necked pheasants live.
The species is on the state's list of first-class endangered animals.
A spokesman for the headquarters said more than 100 professional fire fighters and a Mi-26 helicopter arrived at the fire scene on Wednesday and were helping hundreds of locals trying to control the fire.
