Last week there were several fires in nature. For example, there was a fire in a meadow in Annen. And a wildfire raged in the Pittelose Park in Assen. Here it was the third wildfire in the same street in two weeks.
The Safety Region warns that nature is bone dry and that the risk of a wildfire is very high. For example, people are asked not to barbecue in nature or to throw away cigarettes in nature.
