At least 24 people were killed in a huge rack in Southern Korea, which was defined as the most difficult reinforce ever. The fire has been spreading quickly in the southeast area since Friday, and a large area, causing great damage-and for the time no success has been recorded with it.
At least 27,000 people had to be evacuated from their homes due to the fire. Among the fatalities, at least four firefighters and rescue fighters as well as one shutdown helicopter that crashed (Wednesday) – which led to the scalp of the fire helicopters operating in the area, and makes it even more difficult to deal with the situation. In addition, at least 43,000 acres were burned and fire.
The fire hit thousands of houses, buildings, factories, and even destroyed a historic heritage site-an ancient Buddhist temple between more than 1,300 years considered an important cultural symbol in the entire country. About 4,650 firefighters and rescue fighters are working to cope with the fire, but intense winds and dry weather makes it difficult to fire efforts.
In South Korea, there is considerable pessimistic about dealing with the fire, and hopes of the possibility of rain tomorrow, but it is expected to drop in only small quantities, and it is doubtful that it will help. The actual South Korean President Han Duck Sue has updated that the US Army in South Korea helps in the firefighting attempts, emphasizing that the burning is raging in a rural and distant area that has difficulty dealing with the situation, and especially many of its older citizens.
