A serious fire in the annexed Crimea: posted photos from the scene of an emergency

In Kerch there was a fire in the archaeological complex “Panticapaeum”.

In the annexed Crimea in Kerch, a fire destroyed much of the vegetation on the protected archaeological complex “Panticapaeum”, located in the city centre on a grief Mitridat.

Scorched earth is limited by the fence of the archaeological reserve. The fire destroyed vegetation in the area of the excavation areas of the ancient city, and near the ruins of the Acropolis, which are a popular attraction and one of the “visiting cards” of Kerch.

In Kerch fires occur regularly, because the city has many areas with dry grass. Due to the shortage of water and long-haul city firefighters rarely get to fire in time.

According to the Federal state budget institution “Crimean Directorate on Hydrometeorology and environmental monitoring” 12-14 August in the Crimea will remain extreme fire danger.

Panticapaeum was an ancient Greek city, founded in the late seventh century BC by people from Miletus on the site of modern Kerch.
