The union says 100 miners were blocked, Valdrin Luka says there are only 10

Economic Development Minister Valdrin Luka says the current situation of miners trapped in the Trepca mine is not alarming.

According to him, there are only 10 miners, not as union chairman Fatmir Sadiku stated.

Luka even claims that the mine has natural ventilation, so according to individuals responsible in the field, there is no serious risk of abdomination.

This has happened where a 110 kv trafo has been completely burned, cutting off electricity for Stan Targu's main mine and leaving several villages without electricity.

The rescue teams are on the scene and are working to save all the miners. I pray all miners are healthy and soon join their families”, says Luka
