Watch: Fire service tackling wildfires across Co Kerry

A picture sent to the Irish Examiner news desk appears to show the extent of the blaze.

Several units of the fire service in Kerry are tonight battling against wildfires in the south and the east of the county.

The worst affected was the Caherdaniel area where crews from Sneem were joined by those from Cahersiveen and Killarney as uncontrolled burning spread near houses.
