Mayor Aras: “Our lands will be green again after the fires” Muğla Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ahmet Aras, who is also the president of the Coastal Aegean Municipalities Union, reaffirmed the municipality’s commitment to supporting local producers in the region, known for its fertile agricultural lands. He emphasized that the municipality is particularly focused on greening areas affected by the fires. “After the fires in Muğla, we immediately deployed our teams to assess the damage to our natural resources and the losses suffered by local producers. Muğla, the capital of pine honey production, saw extensive damage to the beekeepers’ hives. As a metropolitan municipality, we will provide hive and beekeeping equipment support to help them recover. Additionally, with the distribution of fruit saplings, producers will be able to replenish the land damaged by the fires. While we cannot bring back our lost forests, we are committed to re-greening our scorched lands,” said Mayor Aras.
