The head of Civil Emergencys says that, in the last 24 hours alone, there have been 3 cases that have sought air intervention in Berat, Konispol and Bulqiza. But Shemsy Prenci requires more commitment from local government, not allowing the reactivating of the firehouses, such as the latest case in Berat.
The “even though between 5 and 7 o'clock in the green crown of the city of Berat was extinguished, it has been reactivated in the Gorica district. We appeal to local governments, mainly fire service facilities, that they have the obligation that after the helicopter fire is out, its perimeter needs to be worked carefully with back pumps and shovels, so it doesn't reactivate, because this makes it even more difficult to intervene, even with air vehicles”, the Shemsy Prenci of “was quoted as saying.

The head of emergency also calls for intensifying the search for the capture of firemen.
“should engage all structures of the Police and Prosecutorial to investigate and punish firefighters, as the fire is really threatening Albania”, Shemsi Prenci said further.
At the recent emergency meeting, local governments were asked to inform in real time about the fires that appear. While two defence ministry helicopters will patrol the entire territory to report on the fires.
