Warning As Fylingdales Blaze Grows- Mayor & Deputy React

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue say the fire in Langdale Moor, near RAF Fylingdales is now a major incident.

There are several fire appliances in attendance and crews are expected to remain on site for some time.

The fire has now spread and is covering around 5sq km. More resources are being sent to the scene.

David Skaith, Mayor of York and North Yorkshire, and Jo Coles, Deputy Mayor for Policing, Fire and Crime, said:

"We are aware of North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service’s declaration of a major incident for the fire at Langdale Moor and continue to monitor the situation. We encourage the public to avoid the area and follow the latest advice from the fire service, which can be found on their website. We want to thank the firefighters, emergency service workers and partner agencies for their response to this incident."

North York Moors Railway say they've paused steam services until further notice to help reduce the risk of lineside fires and reduce pressure on the Fire Service.

North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue have released the following drone footage showing the extent of the task they have:

Smoke may be visible and travelling across the area. If you're nearby, firefighters say to please take precautions:
