The blazes, burning for seven straight days, have taken a sinister turn after a group calling itself “Children of Fire” claimed responsibility for coordinated arson attacks in six cities.

The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues.
