Fire continues at Elbasan landfill

Fire continues at Elbasan landfill

The fire at the Elbasan landfill has been burning for more than 15 hours. Dozens of firefighters are working intensively to put out the flames, but strong winds are making it difficult to put out the fire.

During the night, toxic smoke spread throughout the city of Elbasan, with the wind blowing from west to east.

The change in wind direction has caused the smoke cloud to reach the town of Cërrik, on the western side of Elbasan, increasing concerns about air pollution in the area.

Authorities continue to monitor and work to control the situation.
