A fire that began in agricultural land in Çanakkale’s Kepez district, Türkiye, spread rapidly to forested areas, fueled by wind. Intensive firefighting efforts by air and land crews are ongoing. Drone footage captured the extensive damage to villas in the Güzelyalı district, where properties were reduced to ashes. Firefighting teams from the Regional Directorate of Forestry were promptly dispatched to tackle the blaze, which broke out around 1:30 PM yesterday.
