All Set For The 1000 Miglia 2025
BRESCIA, Italy, June 16 (Bernama) -- The countdown is almost over. The 1000 Miglia returns, 17-21 June with an eight-shaped route inspired by the epic pre-war editions, linking the eastern Adriatic and western Tyrrhenian coasts, besides the Brescia-Rome route and return.

On Wednesday, the cars will arrive in the capital, then, returning north, the third leg will end in Cervia-Milano Marittima. On Friday, the crews will cross Italy from east to west: reaching the Tyrrhenian Sea, the passage through the Naval Academy in Livorno will seal the partnership with the Italian Navy, showing the collaboration and closeness that the Armed Forces and Police have always reserved for the 1000 Miglia. In Parma, the conclusion of the fourth leg will precede the grand finale on Saturday 21st: from midday, the cars will return to Viale Venezia before waving goodbye to the public in Piazza Vittoria with a parade in the festive Festa della Musica atmosphere.

JOHOR BAHRU, June 22 (Bernama) -- Firefighting operations in Division 1, following a fire involving a lorry and an engine oil storage facility on Jalan Cenderai 27, Taman Kota Puteri, Masai, were completed at 4 am today. Johor Zone 1 chief, Senior Fire Superintendent I Zaipulbahri Mat Rusok said that firefighting efforts in Division 2 were still ongoing due to challenges posed by numerous large oil drums obstructing access, making it difficult for firefighters to reach the source of the fire. 'The operation involves the use of three 700-foot water hoses, three water jets, fire hydrants, and machinery pumps,' he said in a statement today. He added that firefighting operations are continuing today. Meanwhile, he said the Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) team, which was deployed to the scene at around 11.40 last night, detected a small amount of sulphur in the air. However, he said the readings were not high, based on monitoring conducted using a Gasmet FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) detector and material samples collected at the scene. 'The use of personal protective equipment (PPE), including face masks or respirators, remains necessary for all personnel on duty,' he added. He also noted that the test results of the collected samples are still being analysed. Yesterday, Deputy chief of Zone I Senior Fire Superintendent Il Rosfarawadi Ismani Ismail reportedly said that five premises were destroyed in the incident, which affected an area of approximately 1,000 square metres and involved the destruction of 15 vehicles.
