A passing motorist filmed a huge fire that broke out on Monday afternoon (11 July) alongside the A61 near Ripon, in North Yorkshire, with clouds of smoke billowing from the crops engulfed in flames.
Six fire engines had to be called to tackle the inferno, with locals being warned by police to avoid the area. The incident was later closed at 6:30 pm.
It comes after a rare amber weather warning for extreme heat was issued for large parts of the UK with temperatures soaring above 30C.
Omg crops are burning 🔥 (I think it was Romania) … How did this happen?
Oh wait it was the government torching fields…
for what purpose would you do this during a looming global food crisis?
