Following yesterday's update on the Plaza Sur fire in Las Condes, the National Forestry Corporation (Conaf) reports 16 forest fires under combat across Chile as of Jan. 1 evening amid extreme heat. Key incidents in the Metropolitan Region and La Araucanía see aerial and ground resources deployed, with several alerts lifted; authorities urge fire prevention.
