Turkey battles wildfires for 6th day; EU to send planes
The Peninsula
BOZALAN, Turkey: Selcuk Sanli let his two cows lose to fend for themselves, put his family’s most treasured belongings in a car and fled his home as a wildfire approached his village near Turkey's beach resort of Bodrum, one of thousands fleeing flames that have coated the skies with a thick yellow haze.
He returned to check on his house Monday in Bozalan only to find that the fire had flared again. "Property is an important part of life but life itself comes first,” he said as he prepared to leave his home once again.More Related News
