Civilian emergency: “Earthquakes and heavy rains feared after drastic heat wave”

10/08/2017 00:00

The driest and hottest summer of the past 80 years in our country is
expected to leave consequences during autumn as well, and even further.

The Director of Civilian Emergencies, Shemsi Prenci, warned firefighters for other dangers in a near future, such as earthquakes and rains.

“After a hot summer, we face dangerous problems. We must know that earthquakes are repeated in exact amounts of time. Calculating the damage of the earthquake of 1967, we must keep in mind the period of repeating, 50 years. This time coincides with a high risk of earthquakes in Elbasan, Tirane, Shkoder, Diber and Korce. We must be careful, because the first tremors have started in Elbasan. We must pray to God there will be no huge scale earthquakes, but we must be ready since there is a real risk of earthquakes by the end of 2017 and early 2018”, Prenci declared and appealed all structures to be ready.
