Russia: 30 killed in Voronezh forest fires


At least 30 people were killed while 600 others were left without a roof over their heads due to forest fires in the city of Voronezh. Rescue teams subdue forest fires in Voronezh, but the situation remains tense due to extremely hot and dry weather. Wildfires spread across parts of western Russia, engulfing 30 percent more land in just 24 hours. Doctors, stationed at the nearby hotel, provided medical assistance to the evacuees. At least 2000 soldiers of the Russian army and as many as 240,000 activist are taking part in the relief and rescue operation.
