The Emergency Management Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs calls on the population to refrain from burning grass in fields and arable land.

"In Western Georgia, there is a strong wind and dry weather, which prevents firefighters from working to eliminate fires. Burning grass in fields and arable land can lead to the spread of fires both on residential buildings and on woodlands, " the ministry said.
