A wildfire that broke out in a grassy area in the northwestern province of Çanakkale and spread to nearby forest land has been brought under control by ground and aerial teams.
Fanned by strong winds, an evening fire that started in open grassland near Gökçebayır Village quickly swept toward the forest.
