"Russia in the darkness" is now not a metaphor for G. Wells , but a very specific smoke over the Kaluga region. Forty summer houses and residential rural houses burned down in a week alone. Muscovites are familiar with the smoky hare, covering the sky when peat bogs burn in the southeast of the Moscow region. Such fires are generally natural for peat regions in the case of a hot dry summer.
