A forest fire is an uncontrolled spread of fire across territories that are occupied by forest

Forest fires are natural disasters, sometimes they can lead to catastrophic consequences.

Forest fires leave behind an area devastated for a long time. And they begin because of underestimation of the danger of fire and violation of the rules of behavior in the forest, with children's pranks with fire. A dropped cigarette butt, abandoned glassware after a picnic and an unkempt fire pit are all potential sources of fire.

Adults, being with children in nature, often thoughtlessly give such an example of behavior as making fires using combustible materials, without proper observance of the rules; leaving garbage behind. Therefore, we urge: start, first of all, with yourself, and then teach the children! By following simple fire safety rules in forests, it is possible to preserve nature and prevent a large-scale disaster.

PROHIBITED:

- build bonfires in dry, hot and windy weather;

- burn grass, shrubs in forest clearings, clearings, pastures;

- build bonfires in coniferous young trees, under the crowns of trees;

- leave bottles or glass fragments in a sunlit clearing, throw burning matches, unburned cigarette butts;

- to leave the fire without extinguishing it until the complete cessation of gorenje.

Remember, the most effective way to fight forest fires is caution and fire prevention.

If you have witnessed a forest fire, do not remain indifferent: take all possible measures to extinguish it on your own, unless of course it threatens your life and health. Immediately notify the fire service about the fire – 101, 112 or KSU "Ridder Forestry" UPR and RP of East Kazakhstan Region by phone – 8 (72-336) 3-00-78.
