Wildfires in Russia hit the 25,000 markcovering an estimated 756 sq miles
as citizens becoming increasingly agitated with the Kremlin for mismanagement and lack of investment.
Losses have been estimated at $15 billion thus far.
The average daily death toll has doubled to 700, 50+ since the fire began.
That number will most certainly rise as the heatwave is predicted to hit 104 degrees by Friday
and continue to August 23
To make matters worse,
Radioactive smoke has entered the equation
as wildfires threaten regions contaminated with radioactive residue left over from the Chernobyl disaster that occured 24 years ago.

On the bright side,
hopefully the fires will stifle the growing population of radioactive boar in the region.

One can't help but think that this event
as catastrophic as it may be,
is far too convenient for America
as Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has been a very vocal opponent
of our recent beef with Iran.
Pledging in 2007 to complete the Iranian nuclear reactor.
Opposite end of the spectrum is Russian president Dmitry Medvedev
whom Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has called a stooge
for supporting UN sanctions imposed on him.
Regardless, Russia may still sell Iran its S-300 air defense systems,
more than likely considering their economy will be "hurting for certain"
due to the outbreaks of fire in their country.
