"The Azerbaijani military arrived in Marmaris to support us in extinguishing the fire.  Thank you for your support," the Marmaris city administration wrote on Twitter.

Since July 28, forest fires have been raging in the southern cities of Turkey. They began in the resorts of Antalya, but later covered other regions of the republic. Today in Bodrum, guests of three hotels were evacuated. Among them there are 100 Russians.
