Currently, two helicopters are extinguishing the fire from the air in this critical area and three teams of the fire department, forestry and volunteers are working on the ground. Fire trucks are positioned above the villages of Ploski and Lilyanovo, ready to respond if the wind picks up again. Two Swedish aircraft fought the fire until noon.
