Because of the fire in Rila Mountain, which has been burning for more than three days, the mayor of Dupnitsa Parvan Dangov declared a partial state of emergency. Under Cherni Vrah, the fire affected about 50 acres of the territory of the National Park "Rila" and is in difficult-to-access terrain. There are about 80 people on the ground, including firefighters, foresters, employees of the Rila and Pirin national parks, military personnel, and volunteers.
