Fires in forest areas in Yakutia, located in the Siberia region of Russia, have been going on for about 3 weeks. People have started to be evacuated in rural settlements of Kazachinsko-Lensky, Kirensky, Ust-Kutsky, Bodaibinsky and Katangsky due to the spread of fire in residential areas. In addition to 2,250 personnel, 284 air and land vehicles participated in the firefighting efforts.
French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in the UK with First Lady Brigitte Macron for a three-day official visit at the invitation of King Charles III.
Welcomed by Prince William and Princess Kate at RAF Northolt, the Macrons traveled to Windsor, where they were received with full honors. A horse-drawn parade and a military band performance of the French national anthem marked the reception.
Macron later met King Charles and Queen Camilla at Windsor Castle, where a luncheon and a private viewing of French-related royal artifacts were scheduled. This marks Macron’s first official UK visit since taking office in 2017.
