Huge fire sweeps Abbottabad forests

A huge fire erupted in the forests of picturesque tourist place Gulyat Chahan in Abbottabad, threatening beautiful flora and fauna of the jungle and wildlife, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Tuesday. 

The fire is spreading rapidly and it is feared that soon it will reach the human settlements dotted around the jungle. 

The fire has already gutted hundreds of precious trees and has also devoured several animals.

Despite the fact that the fire was moving fast, no rescue efforts have started so far by the administration.
