After extinguishing the fire on Bukovica, in the Lovćen National Park, another action is underway in that protected area.

The Protection Service and the Environmental Hygiene Service of Lovćen National Park, the Protection and Rescue Service of the Capital of Cetinje, as well as two helicopters of the Aviation Unit of the Army of Montenegro were engaged in extinguishing the remaining potential fire places.

"The action is carried out in cooperation with the Air Force Squadron and the municipal fire department of the Capital of Cetinje, because there were indications in several places in the form of hot spots and smoke descending towards Njeguši. However, the organization of all competent entities is extremely good and we are all doing our best to completely suppress all potential hotspots," said NP Lovćen director Vladimir Martinović.

Everyone involved in localizing the fire is doing their best, although during the past few days they participated in extinguishing the fire in other locations as well, announced the National Parks of Montenegro.

"NP Lovćen is especially grateful to the Helicopter Squadron of the Army of Montenegro because, in addition to all the fires that are raging, they responded absolutely every time and without their help we would not be able to do much," the park director concluded.

The NPCG reminds that the fire, which broke out on August 16 in Bukovica, in that protected area, and which is suspected to have been arson, was localized after two days.

The National Parks of Montenegro appeal to all users of the space to treat the total values ​​of the protected areas with the greatest care, as well as to avoid activities that represent a potential danger of causing fires.
