Polish firefighters and police have joined forces with Czech firefighters to help put out the fires raging through Bohemian Switzerland National Park in the Czech Republic.

"On Tuesday evening alone, 120 tons of water were dropped from a Polish police helicopter onto the burning forests," General Brigadier Andrzej Bartkowiak from the Polish State Fire Services told PAP, the Polish Press Agency.
