The Directorate for Protection and Rescue reported the occurrence of a fire today in a remote and difficult-to-access section near the Pirin Çeshma zone within Vallandovë. Responding to the incident, the State Fire Service confirmed that the Vallandovë Territorial Fire Units are currently on the scene. Firefighting crews remain deployed at the location as they continue efforts to fully contain and localize the blaze.
Authorities have emphasized the challenging nature of the site, noting that the affected areas are characterized by difficult topography, which complicates emergency access. Furthermore, the Municipality of Vallandovë released preliminary findings regarding the cause of the fire. According to initial assessments, the incident was not attributed to an accident.
Instead, investigators suggest the fire was intentionally set by an individual possessing detailed knowledge of the local terrain. This individual reportedly selected locations within the surrounding uninhabited zones—specific spots that present significant logistical challenges for standard fire response units. The ongoing investigation aims to determine the full scope of the damage and identify all parties responsible for the blaze.
Emergency services continue to manage the situation, prioritizing safety while working to suppress the remaining elements of the fire in the challenging geographical region.
