Climate change: forest fires: the fire brigade wants to evacuate a town in Brandenburg

The fire brigade in Brandenburg is considering evacuating another town because of the large forest fire in the Elbe-Elster district. Lönnewitz would probably have to be cleared during the day, said district fire chief Steffen Ludewig in Falkenberg/Elster in the morning. “The situation is still serious. We still have fires.” The fire has covered an area of ??850 hectares since Monday afternoon.
