Forest fires broke out at two different points in the Doğanalanı and Düzağaç neighborhoods of Adana’s Kozan district. Crews are responding to the fires from the air and on the ground with helicopters and fire engines.
In Antalya’s Serik district, some homes were evacuated due to the fires in the Deniztepesi and Sarıabalı neighborhoods; 5 homes and some greenhouses became unusable. While 3 people affected by the smoke were taken to hospital, the driver of an excavator that overturned during the response was also injured. Efforts to bring the fires under control continue in both cities.
