On July 20th, around 5:00 PM, a fire that broke out in the Geyve district of Sakarya spread to the Bilecik border due to the wind. The fire in the region had largely been brought under control, but the flames grew again yesterday. While the teams in the area continued their intense interventions, horrifying new images related to the fire emerged.
"BRO, WE NEED TO GET OUT, WE'RE TRAPPED"
In a recorded video, moments are captured where the team is caught between the flames and thick smoke in their vehicle. The footage shows that the flames reached the road and visibility due to smoke has nearly dropped to zero, while one person in the vehicle is heard panicking, saying, "Bro, we need to get out, we're trapped. Oh God, help us, my Lord. Oh God, you are great."
THEY FLED IN A PANIC
In another video taken in the garden, the struggle of citizens and the teams intervening in the fire is visible. A person can be heard shouting, "Get out of there, get out," while moments are captured where the flames reached the garden and people fled in panic. The footage also shows a woman trying to reach her father.
A citizen filming the burning areas is heard crying out, "Oh God, what is this, we couldn't save the house either." In another video, the teams intervening in the fire are seen battling fiercely against the flames.
