Fire Fighting helicopters from Russia !!!

I wonder what will happen this Summer when the time comes to hire fire fighting Helicopters...
I believe they come from Russia

' The two Kamov 27 type firefighting helicopters, leased from Russia by the Republic for firefighting purposes, have now completed their work for this year, according to a contract, and have already departed for their base this morning'.

"The two helicopters, which have been the "spearhead" of Cyprus' fire protection for years, departed from Paphos Airport, where they are stationed during the summer season and with Rhodes as a stopover, return to Moscow."

This report is from the latter months in 2021

Im sure the authorities will make arrangements to get fire fighting aircraft from another country.
