Wildfires have engulfed numerous regions in Iran, causing extensive damage to forests and natural resources. Local officials in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province reported a significant fire in the Kouh Siah forests in the Charusa district, which continued throughout Monday. Due to a lack of firefighting resources<\/a>, local residents have been forced to use pack animals to reach the blaze and combat its spread.<\/p>\n The Zagros forests have suffered from repeated fires in recent days, with the Dezpart region in Khuzestan particularly affected. Reports indicate that 900 hectares of natural resources and 500 trees have been lost to the flames. Despite efforts by local communities with limited resources, many fires have not been swiftly contained, leading to widespread destruction of vegetation and wildlife.<\/p>\n In the protected Khayiz area, known for its valuable flora and fauna, recent fires have caused significant environmental damage. Although the state media claims that fires have been contained, there is still no precise data on the extent of the damage, and aerial images have raised concerns among environmental activists about the severity of the destruction.<\/p>\n #Iran<\/a> News: #Wildfires<\/a> Ravage Iran\u2019s Forests Amidst Drought and Systemic Negligencehttps:\/\/t.co\/oCvE8eMLxl<\/a><\/p>\n — NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) June 5, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
