During a wildfire on August 23 in Çanakkale, Turkey, a news crew from Sözcü captured a tree falling on a truck, reportedly injuring an emergency worker. The video shows a woman speaking during a live broadcast when she suddenly screams. The cameraperson then turns the camera in time to see the tree falling on the truck.

According to Reuters, Galip Dincer Ozkan, a search and rescue officer, was in the truck when the tree fell. He was pulled out of the vehicle and taken to a hospital with fractures in his legs.
