For six months, Pristina firefighters intervened in more than a thousand cases

He in an interview for Online Economics says the month of March has been more pronounced in terms of the spread of fires, which is due to severe drought.

In this six months of this year, Zeka says, there have been 1026 cases in which firefighters had to intervene.

In March alone, he says firefighters have had to intervene on 345 cases.

“compared to last year and the previous years, this year we've had especially fires in these six months more than before, it's been highlighted March, where we've had 345 exits, and the next few months, but this has been more pronounced because of the severe drought that has been in winter and even the fires have been bigger, so far we have 1026 exits that means this first 6 months of<1>, he said.

Zeka has shown that firemen have also been involved in two accidents where the consequences have been fatal.

“The consequences of these fires have been small that they were largely superficial, that is, where people cleaned up their property in forests, but there is no great damage, unfortunately during this period we have had two deaths in communications accidents where we intervene.

Zeka has also talked about the current capacities Kosovo firefighters have.

“At the moment we have 98 firefighters plus we have 5 of Kosovo's four working and operating under the fire site of 103, according to the population, and according to a law that is 1500 Pristina firemen should have at least 200 firefighters, when it is known that Pristina, Pristina fire brigade covers three more municipalities -- Fushe Kosova, Obilicqi, Gracanica and Pristina”, Zeka said.

Zeka has called not to light fires on agricultural lands after harvesting.

It has conveyed the message of agricultural experts that lighting fires only makes the land poor and does not help at all.

Environmental experts are especially appealing through the media and have said that they only poor the earth and do not help it, that they are appealing strongly that they do not only cause bad damage”, Zeka said.

Zeka was also asked about recent interventions in many residential objects. Not wanting to give too much detail about these cases, he said more fire prevention experts are dealing with these issues.

“We mostly don't deal with these are fire prevention experts and these are police dealing with, but we have recently had fires in the flats, and we also have houses on rooftops and houses”, Zeka said.

He has told the Online Economy that 17 free countries still remain open and hopes the competition for these countries will soon open.

Unfortunately, only this rejection of firefighters deepened, at the moment we have 17 free countries I hope and I believe that in this coming week or in the first two, the competition for these 17 free jobs will be announced, he said.
