The teams first completed the extinguishing efforts and then carried out cooling operations.
"OUR LOSSES ARE GREAT" Duruköy Muhtar Cuma Çakır stated that the villagers became aware of the fire around 02:30 due to the barking of the dogs. Çakır said, "Our losses are great. But being informed early saved our village from a disaster. The villagers became aware of the fire due to the dogs barking and informed us. Our state mobilized all kinds of resources."
