A giant tornado occurred on a coalfield in the Afşin district of Türkiye’s Kahramanmaraş province. Forming in a windy area, the tornado rapidly grew and blanketed the area in dust. Footage from a helicopter showed that a truck daringly drove past the dangerous tornado. However, the tornado disappeared without causing any damage.
Firefighting teams continue to battle a forest fire in the Yeşilyurt Neighborhood of Muğla’s Menteşe district. Four helicopters and ground crews are intervening in the dense forest area. The cause of the fire remains unknown.
Meanwhile, Izmir Governor Süleyman Elban announced that fires in Çeşme and Ödemiş have been largely contained. Visiting the fire zone in Çeşme, Elban said, “There are no casualties or injuries. Despite winds reaching 85 km/h and shifting directions, teams have confined the flames. We hope to bring it fully under control soon.”
