Canada — A grass fire has forced 13 people from their homes on the Onion Lake First Nation.
Some provincial crews that were assisting with flooding were brought in to help fight the fire, which started Monday.
The people who were evacuated were expected to return home as crews mopped up hot spots Tuesday.
The Ministry of Environment says there is a high risk of grass fires across the entire southern half of Saskatchewan.
