The fire near Boracko Lake is still active, but does not threaten houses.
Helicopters of the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina will continue to extinguish the fire today.
As confirmed by the Konjic Professional Fire Department, the situation is identical to yesterday.
“The fire does not threaten the buildings, it is burning on inaccessible terrain and teams are on the ground. We are still expecting the helicopters of the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina that will help us put out the fire.”
For several days, fires have been raging in Herzegovina, from Capljina, Citluk, Bileca, Gacko to Konjic.
Fire crews are on the ground, and residential buildings that were threatened by the fire have been saved.
Due to the strong wind, the fire spread quickly in and near Boracko jezero on the inaccessible terrain and activated mines.
By unanimous decision of the BiH Presidency, helicopters of the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina were engaged to put out the fires.
