?? Fire situation in the country

4 active fire foci are currently in the entire territory of the country.

The fire situation in Balgjaj in Kurdari village remains problematic. The operational forces under the coordination of the Civil Protection Agency are continuing to keep the situation under control, to avoid danger near a stable with cattle and dozens of beehives.

In the village of Madhesh, the administrative unit of Ulëz in Mat, the fire has taken immediate proportions and is advancing towards the village of Stojan. In addition to the operational forces on the ground, the #Cougar helicopter also went to help.

Meanwhile, the operation to put out the flames in the hearth of the fire in Buza Dede above the village of Gurë-Lure, where the flames are near the lakes of Lura, continues.

The strong wind has made it difficult to put out the fire even in the hearth registered the day before between Xhyra mountain and the administrative unit of Qukes in the municipality of Prrenjas.

All operational forces have been distributed in groups to different areas to create a perimeter to maintain the existing line of fire and to extinguish any activation at the edges of the fire and in its depth.
