A massive forest fire is raging in the Elena Balkan for the third consecutive day. The fire has covered over twenty acres of old clearings, bushes and young forest, a correspondent of the BNR reported.
According to the Mayor of Elena municipality Dilyan Mlazev, the nearby settlements or centuries-old forests are not endangered. The locality is difficult to access and the fire is growing rapidly because of the dry weather and wind. The fire department from Gorna Oryahovitsa, forest holdings from the town of Elena and the village of Buinovtsi, as well as local volunteers are extinguishing the fire.
