The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan Jeyhun Bayramov expressed condolences to Algeria for the deaths caused by forest fires raging across Algeria, AzVision.az reports.
The minister expressed deep condolences to the families and relatives of those killed in the accident and wished the wounded a speedy recovery.
Note, the forest fires in Algeria killed 42 people on Tuesday, including 25 soldiers deployed to help put out the blaze, the government said, as thick clouds of smoke covered much of the mountainous Kabylie region east of the capital.
Dozens of separate fires have raged through forest areas across northern Algeria since Monday night and Interior Minister Kamel Beldjoud accused arsonists of igniting the flames, without providing more details on the allegations.
