"Yesterday, fires in open areas were recorded in almost every region of Ukraine. Firefighters extinguished 229 fires covering an area of almost 170 hectares," the State Emergency Service reported on social media.
More than 1,100 rescuers worked at the sites. Almost 260 units of equipment were involved.
