Raging wildfires, suspected to be started deliberately, are threatening Vladimir Putin's £1billion Black Sea palace in Gelendzhik, Russia. Hundreds of firefighters, along with helicopters, fire-fighting planes, and vehicles, have been deployed to combat the blaze, which has engulfed 118 hectares of land. The fire is currently around ten miles away from Putin's palace, but officials are concerned about its potential to spread. The palace, allegedly built with state funds, is heavily guarded and features extravagant amenities such as a casino, underground ice rink, and an 'entertainment room' with stripper poles.
