In the Ulëz Administrative Unit, in the Municipality of Mat, a fire outbreak has been recorded that has engulfed an area of vegetation and raised concern in the area.

Preliminary sources indicate that high temperatures and strong winds have helped spread the flames, causing the fire to expand rapidly and put a considerable area at risk.

Firefighting forces are on the ground together with employees of the Municipality of Mat, who are intervening to isolate and extinguish the fire, with the aim of preventing it from spreading further.

Preliminarily, the fire is suspected to have been set intentionally, while authorities have launched an investigation to determine the exact causes of the incident.
