Forest fires continue in multiple places in Turkey's Aegean Region.
Extinguishing work continues in the forests of the Çine district of Aydın. The fire has spread to the Yatağan district of Muğla and is still not under control.
Firefighters also continue to battle the wildfire in Muğla with eight extinguishing helicopters, two planes, two sprinklers, 13 water tanks, nine earthmovers and 250 workers, the state-run Anadolu Agency (AA) reported.
Fires also erupted in Menderes and Seferihisar districts of İzmir. The fire in Menderes has been brought under control. Thousands of people have been evacuated as the fire approached settlements.
The fire that broke out in the forests between Turgutlu and Ahmetli districts of Manisa is partially under control, according to the AA. However, strong winds have been helping the fire to spread as four villages have been evacuated.
