2015 Russian wildfires
From 12 to 16 April 2015, a series of wildfires spread across southern Siberia, Russia. In the Republic of Khakassia, 29 people were killed and 6,000 left homeless. Further east in Zabaykalsky Krai, four people died in wildfires near Chita. Damage was also reported in Inner Mongolia.
==Wildfires==
The series of wildfires began on Sunday morning, 12 April in Khakassia as intentional fires set to clear grass for agriculture were caught by strong winds and got out of control.〔 Warm, dry weather help spread the fires, which quickly spread into the region's forests;〔〔 daytime temperatures had reached 25 °C and spreading waves of flames soared to 3 meters in height. Russian television said the fires could be seen from space on satellite imagery. At 1 p.m. local time (15:00 GMT), a state of emergency was declared. Fire control planes and helicopters were dispatched by the Ministry of Emergency Situations, but the fires were not completely extinguished until around 6:00 a.m. on 13 April.
Separately, 86 wildfires were reported in Zabaykalsky Krai from 13–14 April. Fires approached the city of Chita, threatening to ignite an arms dump. Visibility was reduced to 200–300 m. Eyewitnesses described the scene as "an apocalypse" as Chita was filled with smoke for days.〔 An estimated 1,850 military personnel and volunteers worked to extinguish the fires.〔 According to The Kremlin, Vladimir Putin personally took charge of coordinating disaster response.〔 The fires were reported out on 15 April; however, the report was incorrect and fires remained ongoing on 16 April.
Chinese media reports said the fires also spread into Inner Mongolia.
