| A fire broke out close to the Lefkosa-Girne main road yesterday afternoon in the Boğazkoy region. The fire was caused by sparks that flew off from a metal cutting machine hitting dry grass. The first spread quickly and led to 100 acres of land turning to ash. 100 locust trees and 55 almond trees were also burned to the ground. |

| The traffic was a nightmare too. I was there! The smoke covered the road making it not visible! Everyone turned back towards lefkosa making it a 4 lane road! No traffic was allowed onto that road from Lefkosa. Took 2 hours to get home to girne. The fire was spreading fast it was scary! All that land burnt :( |
