2 major wildfires force mass evacuations in Türkiye

Istanbul July 27 (UNI)Two major wildfires in northwestern and northern Türkiye triggered mass evacuations on Saturday, with strong winds pushing flames toward residential areas and trapping vehicles on engulfed roads, local authorities said. In Bursa province, an uncontrolled blaze between Kestel and Gursu districts spread rapidly toward villages, forcing evacuations. Online videos showed residents fleeing on foot as fire engulfed a main roadway, briefly stranding vehicles including civilian aid cars. Meanwhile, a blaze that began on Thursday in Karabuk province remained uncontained, prompting precautionary evacuation of nearly 20 villages. Authorities closed the Ankara-Karabuk highway as residents attempted to relocate livestock from danger zones. Turkish Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Ibrahim Yumakli confirmed on Saturday 76 active fires nationwide -- 28 forested and 48 rural, citing extreme heat and "very high risk" conditions. He said firefighting teams will continue night operations. Temperatures reached 38 degrees Celsius in Bursa and 37 degrees Celsius in Karabuk on Saturday, with forecasts predicting even higher temperatures over the next two days. UNI XINHUA RKM

Downpour disrupts normal life; road, rail & air traffic hit; rivers in full spate

1 2 3 4 Kochi/Thrissur/Kottayam: Heavy rain since Friday night caused widespread damage across several parts of Kerala, raising water levels in rivers and dams and sending normal life into disarray. Road traffic was disrupted and even some flights to Kochi were diverted due to bad weather. IMD said Southwest monsoon would remain intense across Kerala until July 29 due to the influence of a low-pressure area extending from Maharashtra coast to Kerala coast. Heavy rain is also caused by a depression over the Bay of Bengal. IMD issued a yellow alert for districts from Ernakulam to Kasargod for Sunday. Fishers should not venture into the sea off the Kerala-Karnataka-Lakshadweep coasts until July 30. Incois has warned of possible sea surges and high waves reaching 2.8 to 3.4 metres along the Kasaragod and Alappuzha coasts until 8.30pm on Sunday. Traffic on highways and roads in hill districts and cities, especially Kochi, was disrupted. Kochi-bound flights — Akash Air from Mumbai, Alliance Air flight from Agati and Indigo flight from Mumbai, scheduled to land at 11.15am, 11.45am and 12.20pm in that order — were diverted to nearby airports. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Victoria Principal Is Almost 75, See Her Now Reportingly Undo In Kozhikode, rain and strong winds uprooted trees and damaged houses and vehicles.
