An infamous island off the west coast of Scotland used for testing bio-weapons
in the 1940s was “engulfed in flames” on Saturday evening.
Dramatic images emerged across social media showing flames rising up from
Gruinard Island and plumes of smoke billowing across the skies.
The fire service confirmed it had no involvement with the blaze at the island,
also known as Anthrax Island.
The service had earlier released a wildfire warning following a number of
blazes in recent days.
It is not known what time the fire started, however, according to reports on
social media locals could see smoke from the island around 7pm.
Anthrax Island is currently burning on the same spot where the base sets on fire in my book…

Nessie and Kate Gearing who took these photos of Gruinard 'Anthrax' Island described the sight as 'apocalyptic'.
