Canada Wildfires: PM Trudeau says military to be sent in to tackle British Columbia's wildfires
Canada will send in armed forces to tackle fast-spreading wildfires in British Columbia, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said, as more than 35,000 people were put under evacuation orders in the western province.
Trudeau said in a social media post yesterday that the federal government had agreed to send in military assistance after a request from the British Columbian government.
British Columbia had imposed a state of emergency late on Friday, giving officials more power to deal with fire risks.
The main fire was centered around Kelowna, a city 300km east of Vancouver with a population of about 150,000.
Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau assured Sikh Canadians of safety after arrests linked to a Khalistani activist's killing. He emphasized Canada's adherence to the rule of law. However, India's External Affairs Minister Jaishankar criticized Canada's handling, deeming it politically motivated. He highlighted India's strained ties with Canada over allegations of Indian involvement, which India dismissed as baseless.

Canadian Police announced the arrest of three Indian nationals suspected of involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The attack, which sparked a diplomatic dispute between India and Canada, led to allegations of Indian involvement by Prime Minister Trudeau. The suspects, living in Alberta, face charges of first-degree Murder and conspiracy.

Canadian authorities are issuing urgent warnings to all residents still in a British Columbia town to evacuate immediately, despite better weather conditions, following earlier evacuations prompted by a rapidly spreading wildfire. The fire, ignited on Friday, surged nearly twofold in size by the next day, engulfing approximately 17 square kilometres (4,200 acres). BC Wildfire Service maps depict the blaze raging just a few kilometres west of Fort Nelson's city boundaries. Nestled in the far northeastern reaches of British Columbia, approximately 1,600 kilometres (995 miles) from Vancouver, lies Fort Nelson. This remote town, along with the Fort Nelson Indian Reserve, is home to a combined population of about 3,000 residents
