佐治亚州因干旱宣布进入紧急状态，禁止户外用火
Read, Watch or Listen
ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp declared a state of emergency Wednesday for 91 Georgia counties, ordered the Georgia Forestry Commission and related agencies to mobilize all necessary resources, and the state forester issued a broad outdoor burn ban to reduce wildfire spread amid extreme drought, while air assets and National Guard personnel were activated for response efforts. The 30-day emergency order allows the Georgia Department of Defense to deploy Guardsmen and air assets and includes anti-price-gouging measures; this week smoke from multiple south Georgia fires reduced air quality across the region, prompting a Code Orange alert in metro Atlanta Thursday and reporting containment at roughly 10 percent in Clinch County and 15 percent in Brantley County.
