Wildfires closed Palermo airport in Italy on Tuesday as firefighters fought to control the raging blazes. The Sicilian airport tweeted to say it would remain shut until 0900 GMT to give firefighters an opportunity to extinguish the fires which were also disrupting local road and rail traffic. It came days after the island’s main airport of Catania, Italy’s fifth-biggest, was closed due to a fire in a terminal building. It has since reopened but only for a few flights. The news emerged as the Mediterranean country - like much of southern Europe - has been hit by scorching temperatures bringing increased risk of fires and deaths. Yesterday, temperatures rose to 47.6 Celsius in some parts of eastern Sicily - close to a record European high of 48.8 Celsius recorded on the island two years ago. This led the government to put 16 Italian cities on red alert. These included Palermo and Catania, where power and water supply cuts that local officials blamed in part on the heat have been frequent in recent days.
