“Il Vesuvio under attack. Behind the flames of these days there are hands driven by criminal interests that are attacking the natural heritage and biodiversity and threatening the safety of citizens.

The dynamic is always the same: fires are set in different points of the Park, in some cases in the same place so that the flames blaze simultaneously, making it difficult for those who have to intervene”.

Thus in a note Mariateresa Imparato, president of Legambiente Campania on the fires that have hit Vesuvius in recent days.

“Under the acrid smell of burning trees – he continues – there is the unbearable stench of corruption, of interests that conflict with the work of prevention, safeguarding of ecosystems and enhancement of protected areas carried out by Italian Parks.
