Following Authorities to Protect Our Lungs from Burning
Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz Expresses Support for Victims of Forest Fires in Turkey
Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz recently took to social media to extend his well wishes and support to those affected by the devastating forest fires across several regions in Turkey. In his statement, Yılmaz acknowledged the swift response from both air and ground units to combat the fires and expressed gratitude to the courageous public officials and volunteers who have been working tirelessly to contain the blazes.
Yılmaz also highlighted the critical role of Minister of Agriculture and Forestry İbrahim Yumaklı, as well as officials from the General Directorate of Forestry and the Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency (AFAD) in monitoring the situation and coordinating efforts on the ground. He emphasized the heightened risk posed by factors such as the scorching weather, low humidity, and strong winds, which have created ideal conditions for the spread of fires.
The Vice President urged the public to exercise caution and refrain from any activities that could potentially ignite fires. He stressed the importance of proactive measures to prevent fires from breaking out in the first place, emphasizing the need for everyone to heed the warnings issued by authorities and promote fire safety practices within their communities.
As Turkey continues to grapple with the ongoing wildfire crisis, Yılmaz’s words serve as a reminder of the collective responsibility we all share in preserving our natural environment and ensuring the safety and well-being of our fellow citizens. Let us all unite in solidarity and vigilance to protect our forests and prevent further devastation.
