A series of dangerous fires have spread throughout the country, the
biggest of which lasted for 48 hours. The Chief of Civilian Emergencies,
Shemsi Premci, explained that the situation has been handled very well.
“There have been 3-4 fires of huge proportions, starting from Melgusha of Shkoder, Theth, Shengjin, Kakariqi, Mallakastra and Lushnje. The Civilian Emergency has taken all measures, in cooperation with the army structure. They have put out a fire that lasted more than 48 hours”, Premci said.
“More than 80% of the fires have been intentional but not arson. I can burn my waste materials in my farm intentionally, but I don’t plan to burn the other farms”, Premci said.
The Head of Emergency asked the Police to fine every farmer that creates fires and to be more strict with implementing the law.
