with the situation there with the fires. are they close to bring it under control? well, i mean, it feels far away from being under the control because the reports regarding the new fires erupt in, in the different places. there's us come in just a little bit ago. we got a report in the board room, the tone of both room in the more progress or so there is another fire just iraq today, which is one of the most popular touristic destination in the country. and also, man, i've got know where we are, is also alongside oxygen in this place, districts are the worst heats places, but on the other hand, the most popular touristic destinations as well. so the fords are continuing to extinguish the fire, but it's all around just the in $26.00 provinces in turkey, since when is the 80 more than $85.00 different locations,

there are reports of the for the fire, for now. so more than 30 a cause and tons of the how to cope there's or continuously getting the water from the mediterranean sea and dropping on the how supports the police that the fire is erupt in. but they have job is quite difficult because the, the, whether it's quite hard, the temperature is very much high and also the humidity so long. and with the help of the fire with the wind, the fire is easier getting spread all around the country. but so far, the reports for the fire not only alongside the cost of cities, even at the center, i'm totally in cities like i said, it could have kind of also that has been for us fire report and so far aware investigations heading now while the

investigation just started yesterday and there is a coordination between 30 of the intelligence service and ministry of interior. but it's still premature that are not that much of the details to talk about right now because so it's quite new. but on the other hand, the investigation has sort of based on the circumstantial evidence as of the previous years. because in previous years, peter has come in, some of the forest fires and the government is handing to it tends to believe that maybe this is also an organized option that's conducted by the p k. k. so president out, one is not the one i got soon, we expect him to speak. we'll. we'll see if there are more details on the investigation. all right, thanks so much for a so thought about it. there afghans and their families still waiting for special visas to settle in the usa. they're getting increasingly worried about how to bomb advances in some of the laces fighting
