Civil Protection Reports record summer interventions

During the summer of 2026, Tunisia experienced an unprecedented rise in temperatures, with average highs exceeding normal levels by 12°C in late August, which increased the risk of wildfires. The civil protection responded by ramping up its capacities through doubling the human personnel, transferring firefighting trucks from southern and central regions, and activating volunteer systems to combat forest fires, especially in the Kaf governorate. Between June and September, civil protection recorded 66,484 interventions, a 17% increase compared to the previous year, including 14,169 fires and 16,715 roadside rescue cases. Notably, there was a significant surge in interventions during July and August, with an average of 756 and 700 interventions per day, respectively.
