A total of 29 wildfires, including seven that are still active, were registered in the past 24 hours, the Crisis Management Center (CMC) said Monday.
A quality pine forest is burning in the municipality of Makedonski Brod between the villages of Breznica and Tazhevo. 15 employees from the national park “Jasen” intervened, helped by about 30 members of the Army who fight day and night to prevent the fire from breaking into the interior of the protected multi-purpose area “Jasen”. The army helicopter Mi 17 could not operate on two occasions due to thick smoke on Sunday.
According to CMC information, seven wildfires are under control and efforts are being made to bring them to the stage of localization. Fifteen wildfires were extinguished.
