The fight against B.C.’s wildfires continued Saturday with a focus on central Okanagan, where flames blazed through West Kelowna suburbs and forced the evacuation of neighbouring Kelowna’s University of B.C. campus.
The Interior is the epicentre of a battle against hundreds of fires across the province that prompted Premier David Eby to declare a provincewide state of emergency on the evening of Aug. 18 that forced the evacuation of about 15,000 people late that night.
