Summary
Firefighters are back on Tintwistle Moor as a wildfire reignites after being briefly contained — flames now burning deep in peat bogs make extinguishing tough, with shifting winds complicating efforts. The blaze, which scorched 200 hectares and sent smoke for days, forced closures including Woodhead Pass and issued smoke warnings for nearby towns. Now, specialist teams and two helicopters are joining ground crews to drop water and tackle the fire, urging everyone to stay away while they work to put it out as quickly as possible.
