About wildfires in Italy
Italy faces recurring wildfire threats, particularly in the southern regions and islands. Sicily, Sardinia, Calabria, and Campania experience the most intense fire activity during the summer months. Many Italian wildfires are arson-related, with criminal fires accounting for a significant percentage of ignitions.
The 2021 fire season was exceptionally severe, with Sicily experiencing record temperatures and devastating fires. The 2023 fires on Rhodes prompted discussions about Mediterranean fire preparedness.
