The fire near the Prespa National Park has gotten out of control. The fire has spread over a wide area of ​​the park due to the lack of intervention from the air.

The outbreaks have been left to the mercy of fate, engaging only the fire service employees, the army and the residents of the area, which has put the protected areas at risk. Circumstantial means cannot keep a large fire under control.

The mayor of the municipality, Pali Kolevski, has appealed for help, asking for intervention from the air as the solution to avoid a disaster for the Prespa National Park.

The fire has been active for 4 days and so far more than 90 ha of land have been burned, including pastures, low vegetation and forest areas in the national park.
