Russian land under blazing fire/Collage 24 Channel Russia has barely recovered from the floods when a new natural disaster “roams” across its lands . Thus, “nature’s revenge” came to Russian territory in the form of large-scale forest fires. In particular, forest fires began in 7 regions of Siberia. They covered more than 40 thousand hectares of forest. As noted in the publication “Siberia. Realities”, according to the state enterprise “Avialisoohrana”, now in the region 41 fires have engulfed forests with a total area of 40,374 hectares. The most difficult situation is in the Jewish Autonomous Region (JAO) and Khabarovsk Territory. It is known that in the JAO, on April 25, a large forest fire was discovered in a hard-to-reach area, and until today the fire passed almost 18.5 thousand hectares. To stop the fire, local authorities brought in federal reserve forces from Avialesookhrana, and the fire was localized by April 29. In the Khabarovsk Territory, the fire in 14 municipalities spread to almost 22 thousand hectares. The capital of Buryatia was also captured by fire. Thus, the outskirts of Ulan-Ude and its suburbs are engulfed in fire, as reported by Russian media and telegram channels. The fire is due to the fact that more than 100 hectares of forest are burning in Buryatia. Due to strong winds, the fire reached the capital of Buryatia – Ulan-Ude, and then spread to buildings in the suburbs. The city authorities then announced the evacuation of the population in one of the areas. At the moment, no casualties have been reported.
