Following the recent forest fires in İzmir, Turkey, government officials have conducted extensive damage assessments and initiated recovery efforts. Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya reported that 228 residential buildings, 13 businesses, and 15 barns suffered heavy damage. The government has disbursed approximately 16.9 million Turkish lira in aid to affected residents. Coordinated by the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) and the Housing Development Administration of Turkey (TOKİ), reconstruction plans aim to deliver new homes within 5 to 6 months, with some officials promising completion within one year. Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change Minister Murat Kurum visited several impacted villages in the Ödemiş district, assuring residents that all damages will be addressed and new villages will be built collectively. The fires affected 12 districts and 37 neighborhoods over roughly 10 days before being brought under control. Officials emphasized ongoing support and reforestation efforts, pledging to plant trees in all burned areas.
