Wildfires – Siberia
Russian authorities started to evacuate two villages in a vast region of Siberia where 155 active forest fires burned Sunday.
A dozen villages in northeastern Siberia’s Sakha-Yakutia republic were threatened by the fires. Local authorities were moving the residents of two villages, Kalvitsa and Kharyyalakh, to other inhabited areas as crews totaling 3,600 people worked to contain about half of the blazes. On Saturday, flames destroyed 31 houses and eight maintenance buildings in another village, Byas-Kuel, and about 400 residents were evacuated, local officials said.
