Firefighters remain at the scene of a blaze at a waste facility that started more than a week ago, with operations expected to continue for some time.
Crews have been at the scene at the landfill site near Ladybank in Fife since the alarm was raised at about 1.35pm on May 12.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) said it remains a “complex and protracted incident” due to the “deep-seated nature” of the fire and the volume of material involved.
SFRS said that operations at the site are expected to continue for some time.
At the height of the incident, 12 appliances and specialist resources were dealing with the blaze.
Three fire engines were still at the scene as of 6.30am on Wednesday.
