The fire broke out after a traffic accident on Tuesday afternoon and has so far affected 2,200 hectares.

The Spanish Ministry for Defence has sent more soldiers to help in the fight against the first large forest fire of the summer.
There are now 285 soldiers working in the affected area of the province of Zaragoza.
The fire is more stable, but is not yet considered to be under control.

It broke out on Tuesday when a car hit a tree and has so far affected 2,200 hectares of pines in the area of Zuera.
More than 400 people in total are now working against the flames in conditions of high temperatures and gusty winds. 16 fire fighting planes are in use in daylight hours.
