Fire in Panama
Forest fires have been burning in Darien Province, Panama, for the past two weeks.
Hundreds of people are working to stop the spread of the fires and keep them away from inhabited areas.
The fire started in a dry forest near the village of Garachiné, and the fires have been approaching the village since then, prompting concerns for the people living there.
While efforts were made to stop the spread of the fire for several days, it spread out of control of the fire fighters on the ground in Darien National Park and has grown in size since then.
The government of Panama has sought more people and international aid in extinguishing the fires. The United States have provided a helicopter to help deploy water from above to combat the fire and other fire fighting vehicles have been deployed.
