Hundreds more wildfires ignite/burn in Russia
8-8-2010    (CNN) -- About 270 new wildfires have started in drought-plagued 
Russia over the past 24 hours, state media reported Sunday, citing the 
country's emergencies ministry.
"As many as 276 wildfires have been extinguished," the ministry told 
RIA-Novosti. "Currently, 554 wildfires are raging on an area of over 190,000 
hectares."
The setback comes as Moscow chokes in intense smog, with toxic substances at 
levels several times greater than the norm. State media reports the combination 
of forest fires and pollutants contributed to the smog.
