New fires have broken up in the forest areas around Bulqize. After the
fires that broke up a few days ago, vast areas of forests and pastures
have taken fire near some villages of the Fushe-Bulqize communes and
Zerqan, and the mountain side where there are the Bulqize chrome mines.
There has been no intervention for putting the fires under control, since the terrain was very difficult.
According to the Director of the Forest Service in this area, all fires caused in forests were intentional and the community has not helped for putting them out.
The Bulqize District has many active fires that keep burning for more than one week. The fires in Ternove might also damage the Liqeni i Zi, declared a natural park.
The Diber District has five active fires, such as the one at the Liqeni i Brucit, at the National Park of Lure, in Kulemath, Kacni and Zalle Gjocaj of the Selishte commune, and also in Balgjaj of Mat, where 30 military forces are working for taking the fire under control.
