Firefighters in Spain were working to stop a wildfire in Valencia on Monday which has destroyed more than 1,000 hectares of land.
The fire had earlier been stabilized but changing weather conditions, including a westerly wind and low humidity fanned the flames.
Authorities have demanded help from the Military Emergency Unit (UME), which added another 80 military personnel to the 135 already on the scene, and sent two helicopters on Tuesday.
There are concerns the situation could become complicated, with the national weather agency AEMET reporting strong storms and winds could hit the Valencia region.
