An operation was conducted this Friday in Porto-Palermo Bay, resulting in the recovery of two coral reefs. The structures were successfully brought to the surface by personnel from the Pashaliman Naval Base. The effort involved a significant collaboration between various groups, including geology experts, soldiers from the Albanian Naval Forces, representatives from civil emergencies, and the Himara Municipality.
These reefs were located in the vicinity of the anchoring points utilized by tourist vessels in the Porto-Palermo area. Reports indicate that the structures had remained submerged at considerable depths for a period exceeding 80 years. Despite their long-term submersion, the reefs were assessed as posing a potential hazard, necessitating the intervention.
Following their retrieval, military experts took charge of the coral formations. The primary objective of the operation was to neutralize the reefs under strictly controlled and safe conditions. The deployment of multiple agencies underscored the complexity and seriousness of the undertaking, combining naval, geological, and civil response capabilities.
The successful removal and neutralization process aims to mitigate any future risks posed by the submerged structures to maritime traffic and local navigation. The coordinated effort highlights the commitment to maintaining safety and managing underwater environmental assets within the bay area. The recovery of the two sites marks the conclusion of an operation designed to secure the maritime environment for ongoing tourism and local passage.
