Firefighters and armed forces have suspended operations in Karaburun due to strong winds and thick smoke putting their lives in danger.
The team is expected to resume work when there will be no more strong winds. Flames also had engulfed the nearby “Pavaresia” highway, endangering surrounding businesses.
However, Euronews Albania correspondent in Vlora Ebrieta Maçaj reported that the situation was put under control as the wind is blowing in the direction of the south, but the National Park of Llogara is still in danger.
Another dangerous front near some fuel tanks in Narta was immediately put out, reported Maçaj.
