Prosecutor's Office in Russia: The Forests in Siberia Were Deliberately Ignited to Cover Illegal Logging
Eco-activists say nearly irreparable damage to the nature has been done in the region of Siberia.
The huge fires that swept the Siberian forests were deliberately ignited. This was stated by the Russian prosecutor's office.
Investigators say the fire, which covered two and a half million hectares, was lit to cover up illegal logging.
