Two Active Wildfires in Elbasan as Blazes Continue for Days in Prrenjas and Librazhd

Two wildfires remain active in Elbasan County, while firefighters and emergency services continue working to bring the flames under control and extinguish them. In the village of Shqiponjë, part of the Stravaj Administrative Unit in the municipality of Prrenjas, crews are working to prevent the fire from spreading beyond the affected area.

The other fire is located in the village of Dardhë, in the Hotolisht Administrative Unit of the municipality of Librazhd, deep within a forested area. The flames in this beech forest have been burning for about a week, requiring an intensive effort by crews on the ground to extinguish them completely.

Efforts in both areas are being hampered by the mountainous terrain and dense vegetation. Containing the fires and preventing them from spreading to other forested areas remain the main priorities, while authorities continue to monitor the situation and deployed crews remain on standby in case conditions deteriorate.
