G7 leaders near deal to provide $20 million to tackle Amazon fires

The leaders of the group of seven nations are close to agreeing a deal to provide $20 million in emergency help to stop the Amazon forest fires, reports Olaylar citing to Reuters.

"The reality is that for the emergency aid they especially need financing, because they don't have the funds to enable planes, fire-fighting planes to take-off," the source said, confirming the $20 million figure.
