Once in GAORI, 55 men and women were transported in an Air Force helicopter to the site of the emergency, with the aim of supporting the units that valiantly seek to extinguish the flames.
At the same time, the Air Force is carrying firefighters and members of the National Unit for Disaster Risk Management to identify critical points in the conflagration.
