Fire scorches Mali I Thate
Korce - Twelve hectares of forest and shrubs have been burnt down because of a fire occurred last night in Mali I Thate, which is high 220 meters and it divides lakes of Prespa and Ohrid.Forces of forestry police fought with the flames all night to extinguish the fire. The fire was localised early Tuesday’s morning and then after fighting all day long the flames were put under control. It is suspected that the fire might has been activated by some shepherds who through burning woods and shrubs try to gain more pastures for their livestock, whose number is increasing in villages in the foot of this mountain. There are three communes surrounding this mountain; Vreshtas commune, Pojan commune and Liqenas commune. None of these institutions set in motion to help the Forestry Enterprise in extinguishing the fire, even though their inhabitants are the ones to exploit this mountain, like for fire-wood as well as for their livestock. This is the eighth fire that occurred during this summertime in forests and pastures around Korca district, where 6 of them occurred on Vithkuq commune about 25 km from Korca town and two in Liqenas. In none of the cases, the author of these fires was arrested. So besides the timber poachers, the forest has also to confront fire-starters fighting to exhaust forest surfaces in Korca district.
