		</div><p>Raging forest fires in central Sardinia have forced the evacuation of 900 people as flames threatened some residential areas and others were engulfed by dense smoke, firefighters said.</p>
<p>No deaths or injuries have been reported.</p>
<p>“Currently, the situation for the people seems to be under control”, said Alessandro Paola, deputy chief for Italian firefighters’ emergency department.</p>
<p>France and Greece dispatched aircraft to help put out wildfires, which have consumed around 20,000 hectares in the province of Oristano.</p>
<p>They join 10 Italian firefighting squads and five other aircraft deployed.</p>
<p>“It is an unprecedented reality in Sardinia’s history,” regional governor Christian Salinas said.</p>
<p>“So far, 20,000 hectares of forest that represent centuries of environmental history of our island have gone up in ashes.”</p>
<p>Firefighters battled all night bringing under control a blaze near the town of Montiferro that displaced 400 residents over the weekend.</p>
<p>The wildfires, which broke out over the weekend, have been spread by dry southerly winds.</p>
