Kuwaiti oil fires happened in 1991.
A lightning strike is a common cause of wild fires, which can happen anywhere.
Forest fires can happen anywhere
When a fire is out of control in a forest.
Forest fires can happen at any time, but they are more likely to start during the day when temperatures are higher, humidity is lower, and sunlight can ignite dry vegetation. However, fires can also continue to burn and spread at night if there is enough fuel to sustain them.
It is difficult to provide an exact number of forest fires that have occurred in the world as data is constantly evolving. However, millions of forest fires happen worldwide every year.
it is the reason why pan fires happen. LOL I like Cats....
Iraq invaded Kuwait primarily because the Iraqis thought that Kuwait was stealing their oil. Iraq suspected Kuwait of using slant drilling and stealing 300,000 barrels of oil daily.

The Kuwaiti oil fires, ignited by retreating Iraqi forces during the Gulf War in 1991, could have been prevented through better strategic planning and adherence to international protocols regarding environmental protection and warfare. Enhanced intelligence and surveillance could have identified and mitigated the potential for such destruction. Additionally, diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire before the onset of conflict might have dissuaded Iraq from resorting to these tactics. Finally, proactive measures, such as securing oil facilities and implementing disaster response plans, could have reduced the likelihood of igniting fires during conflict.
The Gulf War of 1991 had a minimal environmental effect until Saddam Hussein's retreating Iraqi army began to torch Kuwaiti Oil Wells. This led to large fires and petroleum issues in Kuwait that had to be cleaned up.

Investing in Kuwaiti dinar can offer benefits such as potential for high returns due to the country's stable economy and oil reserves. However, risks include currency fluctuations, geopolitical instability, and dependence on oil prices.

Kuwaiti dinar was created in 1961.
No, foam is not recommended for oil fires as it can actually spread the fire and cause it to flare up. Foam is better suited for extinguishing class A and B fires, such as wood or paper fires. For oil fires, it is best to use a fire extinguisher specifically designed for class K (kitchen) fires or a fire suppression system designed for commercial kitchens.
Mixing water with any burning oil is extremely dangerous. The oil/gasoline can splash away from the centre of the original fire cashing more fires to start, burn those trying to fight the fire etc. There are liquids used that are not water based but are liquid these are mostly used for chemical fires -On small oil fires form or Co2 gas is used to starve the fire of oxygen and put it out.
