Forests in the South of Tuva are on Fire

Forest fires were renewed in the southern Erzin district of Tuva, reported the head alexistrator of Erzin, Aldyn-Kys Kombu (who is the only female district admistrator head in Tuva). The fires are due to the dry thunderstorms which often occur in Russia--lighting occurs, but no rain follows. Many shepherds campsites have already burned, 25 in all, and half of the forest territory of Erzin is on fire. The fire has provoked yet another problem--Erzin shepherds will have a shortage of food to feed their cattle during the winter. The situation is now under control, as 45 parachute firefighters and 23 foresters are fighting the fire. The Government of Tuva has decided to provide 5,000 rubles to aid each shepherd family who sustained damage due to the fire.
