Minister Yumaklı on forest fires: We will be fighting a stronger enemy starting tomorrow

In his statement, Minister Yumaklı drew attention to the fact that air temperatures will rise even further in the coming days, saying, "The all-time temperature record was broken today.

It has been stated that all air temperatures will increase by another 10 degrees starting tomorrow.

Starting tomorrow, we will be fighting a stronger enemy," he said.

Yumaklı used the following expressions in his statement:

"The fires in Karabük are continuing; intervention is ongoing with 2 planes and 19 helicopters. Because the area is vast and full of canyons, it seems the fires will keep us busy. Unstable winds are making our work difficult here. Our interventions in Antalya are continuing. The fire in Aksu Kurşunlu had reached the ancient city, but there was no damage. We will continue our interventions in the ongoing fire in Manisa even after dark. This is actually a war; we are in a state of war with the fires. We are talking about an enemy that does not get tired and finds strength in the heat. The all-time temperature record was broken today. It has been stated that all air temperatures will increase by another 10 degrees starting tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, we will be fighting a stronger enemy."
