May 30 (Xinhua) -- A fire resurged at the Xirite Forest Farm in the middle range
of Dahinggan Mountains in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and
was yet to be controlled by Tuesday morning, local fire fighters said.
The blaze re-entered the area from the nearby Sangenhe Forest Farm between Mianduhe and Urqihan towns on Monday afternoon, wherea fire was reported last week.

The previous fire, which entered Xirite in the
evening of last Friday, was reportedly brought under control by early Monday
morning.
Fire fighters, however, said on Monday that difficult
access, dry and windy weather, and poor telecom connections would make it hard
to prevent the fire from resurging in Xirite.
Withered branches and leaves also contributed to the
fire, fire fighters added. Enditem |
