The fire threatened September 15th, hospital, and water depots, which were about 500m near the fireplace, but now the situation has normalized and is under control. Civil emergency sent out available services, while the flames first confronted Tepelena firefighters, with six vehicles and managed to bring them under control.
The firehouse spread to a hill at the entrance of the city. But fortunately with the intervention of firefighters and the army, flames have been kept under control. So far about 3 hectares of forested forests have been burned from the forest floor.
The causes of the fire still remain unclear, but from Tirana it has arrived and a helicopter that will enable the full neutralisation of the flames from the air. There are still civil emergency services, 20 military forces, as well as fire departments from Gjirokastra, who came for assistance in conditions where there is only one fire vehicle in Tepelene.
