Norway — The forest fire which raged in Nissedal, Telemark this weekend, was finally brought under control on Monday, after 650 acres of forest and heather were destroyed.
No one was injured, and the firefighters managed to save houses and cottages in the area.
Firefighters, civil defence crews as well as many volunteers took part in the efforts to stop the fire, assisted by helicopters dousing the cinder dry terrain.
