The taiga fires are raging in ten areas over 23,00 hectares, a spokesman at the regional emergencies ministry told ITAR-TASS on Wednesday.

Several residential areas had to be saved from the forest fires. The Far Eastern centre of the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry said 47 fires are sweeping across 25,000 hectares of the taiga. Forest are also on fire in the Kamchatka, Amur, Magadan and Sakhalin regions. About 800 people, 142 units of ground equipment and 16 aircraft are involved in fire-fighting efforts.
