Agriculture was hit hardest, with local residents reporting significant losses to their crops.
“There has been damage, but not everywhere to the same extent. My covers were torn and some plants were damaged. No one contacted us about this, you are the first to come,” said one of the farmers.
Another added: “The white covers on plantations have been completely destroyed, while their inner material has suffered damage. Also, the protected tobacco has been severely affected.”
“We haven’t received any help from anyone. We are left at God’s mercy. The state hasn’t supported us at all. We are forced to go on television to seek support from institutions,” complained another resident.
The mayor of Haračina Municipality, Daut Beqiri, stated to Alsat that immediate actions have been taken to stabilize the situation and assistance has been requested from the Ministry of Agriculture.
“The farmers reacted quickly and informed us about the damage to agricultural products. At dawn we contacted representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture and considered the alternative of setting up a commission to assess the damage, so that we can assist the farmers,” Beqiri emphasized.
Although the storm lasted only a short time, its consequences were felt in several sectors of the municipality. Trees, roofs, protective metal sheets, and roads were damaged. By afternoon, the situation was normalized thanks to the intervention of teams. /Alsat.mk
