The 2019 Siberian wildfires began in July 2019 in poorly accessible areas of northern Krasnoyarsk Krai, Sakha Republic and Zabaykalsky Krai, all in Siberia, Russia. By the end of the month the size of the fires reached 2,600,000 hectares (6,400,000 acres).[1] As of 30 July, there had been no reported deaths or injuries due to the fires.[2]
The 2019 Siberia wildfires generated significant publicity, especially among social media users.[3] As a result, a process of reviewing legal regulations regarding forest protection and forest fire extinguishing activities was started at the state level.[4][5][6]
