Many neighborhoods, especially Tobiniye, Kelekê, Herberê and Dirine, were affected by the fire, which was reported to have broken out yesterday after a spark broke out from a power pole between Amed's Xana Axpar (Çınar) district and Mêrdîn's Şemrex (Mazıdağı) district. People, animals and trees were burned in the fire in the neighborhood.
While the residents of the neighborhood and then the fire departments of the municipalities of the People's Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) intervened in the fire from the first moment, the fire, which was stated to have spread over at least 10 thousand decares of land due to the effect of the wind, went out on its own.
