'Firefighters are being completely outpaced by the flames and the fire.' Our special correspondent AlexCrawfordSky reports from Bodrum in Turkey, where wildfires are burning out of control. Read the full eyewitness report:

There has been particularly low humidity which has contributed to the dryness as well as strong sea winds which have exacerbated the fire hazards.A number of scientists blame these extremes on climate change but on top of these environmental factors, there's been heavy criticism of the Turkish leader,And exactly what started them is not yet clear although arsonists are being blamed for some.

"My house is burning, my house, my house...oh my God," was all one woman could say to us when we came across her in Cokertme. Minutes earlier she'd been screaming at the firefighters, cursing them for not arriving soon enough. Only later as the fires continued unabated has help been accepted from European countries such as Spain and Croatia.
