Turkey is battling deadly wildfires across multiple provinces, with two fatalities confirmed and over 200 homes destroyed. 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 group, allegedly linked to the banned Kurdish militant organization PKK, says it started the fires as part of a political campaign.
The PKK has not commented on the claim. Firefighting operations continue near major cities like Izmir, Antalya, and Istanbul, with support from helicopters and aircraft. Roads near popular resort town Çeşme have been closed, and hundreds have been evacuated. As emergency services struggle to contain the flames, Turkey now faces a national security scare amid environmental devastation. The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues.
