Fire crews are continuing to battle a large wildfire spreading across New Jersey and New York amid an increase in wildfires in the north-eastern US.
Much of the region is facing a drought, and dry conditions across almost the whole country have made wildfires a more frequent occurrence, with windy periods further exacerbating potential or existing fires.
The blaze, known as the Jennings Creek wildfire, has burned more than 3,000 acres (1,214 hectares) as of Monday, according to the New Jersey forest fire service.
New Jersey and New York forest fire services have joined forces to tackle the wildfire. Firefighting crews are reported to be understaffed, however, with most teams being largely composed of volunteers.
