Fire in a province of Turkey/ 10 dead while extinguishing the flames

Ten people, including volunteers, lost their lives while fighting fires in Turkey's Eskisehir province.

The victims, part of a 24-person response team, were trapped when changing winds quickly redirected the flames. At least 14 others were injured and remain in hospital, according to Forestry Minister ?brahim Yumakl?.

Nine major fires and eleven major blazes have broken out across Turkey in the past 24 hours, caused by extreme heat, drought and strong winds.

The fires in the provinces of Eskisehir, Sakarya and Bilecik are largely under control, but strong winds continue to make efforts difficult.

The deaths bring the number of people killed in fires in Turkey this year to 13. /CNA
