To stop forest fires in Siberia, it is necessary to actively engage in their prevention. With the onset of drought, the danger is not only an unused cigarette or a bonfire left by tourists, but also broken bottles thrown on dry grass. They focus the rays of the sun, making the grass begin to smolder and ignite.
2
An additional danger is represented by the natural reasons why there is a fire and uncontrolled spread of fire over vast territories. For example, a thunderstorm, the beginning of which is marked by lightning, can carry away thousands of hectares of forest. It is impossible to stop natural disasters, fires occur from them annually, but their percentage is quite small. Basically, the forest in Siberia perishes at the hands of man.

The most alarming situation is observed annually in Altai Krai. Klyuchevskoy, Kulundinsky, Aleisky district are in the zone of increased fire hazard. Drought is followed by the fifth highest burning class. Fires are a threat of technological disasters. At risk is the Republic of Kazakhstan, which borders the Kulunda region.

To extinguish fires, all the forces of the Ministry of Emergencies are directed. The most famous way to deal with the elements is the use of a cord charge with explosives. First, rescuers hang a reflective screen in the forest canopy, then they make an explosion just before the front of the forest fire.

An equally popular way to stop forest fires in Siberia is the traditional use of aviation. Tons of fire extinguishing compounds are dumped into the fire zone. ASP-500 aircraft suppresses a fire storm and helps prevent accidents and technological disasters.

Fully extinguish the fire helps nature itself. Heavy rains help prevent the spread of fire and completely flood the blazing fires. A dry summer is accompanied by fires in Siberia, which practically do not die out.
