A wildfire burning west of Sudbury has expanded to 72 hectares and remains out of control, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR). Firefighting aircraft have been deployed to combat the blaze, while 18 local fire trucks are actively working at the scene. The fire, which was first reported earlier this week, has grown rapidly due to dry conditions and gusty winds. Officials are urging residents in nearby areas to remain vigilant and follow evacuation orders if issued. The MNR is coordinating efforts with local emergency services to contain the fire and prevent further spread. No structures have been reported damaged as of yet, but authorities continue to monitor the situation closely.
