Wildfires force closure of Sicily's Palermo airport

Wildfires forced the closure of Palermo airport on Sicily on Tuesday (July 25) as extreme weather continued to batter Italy, with severe storms causing damage and at least two deaths in the north of the country. The airport in the Sicilian capital would remain shut until at least 0900 GMT, its operator said on Twitter, as firefighters worked to extinguish a major blaze in a nearby area that also disrupted local road and rail traffic. The incident added to Sicily's travel misery at the peak of the tourist season. The island's main airport of Catania, Italy's fifth-biggest, was closed last week due to a fire in a terminal building and has reopened only for a few flights.
