Saab JAS 39C Gripen of Swedish Air Force dropped 500 lbs bomb on forest fire
Wide forested areas of Sweden are currently ablaze, due to an unprecedented hot weather linked to climate change. Some of them are hard to reach and potentially dangerous areas. To try and halt the spread of one blaze in and around a military training range in the municipality of Älvdalen, Swedish emergency authorities decided to call for the air force assistance, Joseph Trevithick reports on War Zone.
