The fire crews have summoned defence ministry helicopters to fight fire in the Vazovani forest of the Kvareli district, Kakheti Region. Thirty officers of the emergencies department and the local fire brigades are involved in the operation, but local volunteers are helping them too.
Two of the five spots of fire have been extinguished, while three others have been localized. Now the firefighters are trying to extinguish them too.
The fire broke out in the area, which is five kilometres away from the populated area. The firemen say the populated area is secured now. (“Rustavi2”)
