An extreme fire incident shook the afternoon hours in Aytos, when around 14:59, a fire in dry grass threatened multiple city facilities. The fire front, provoked by unfavorable meteorological conditions, menacingly creeps towards strategically important locations.
The terrain with high ruggedness and unstable air currents further complicate the rescue operation. The critical zone includes a villa area, the monumental site "The Three Brothers", city park, zoo, and a social home for elderly people.
Six fire trucks were immediately mobilized, accompanied by employees from the District Police Department in Aytos and experts from the Executive Forest Agency. Due to a real danger to human lives, a full-scale evacuation procedure was initiated.
Rescue teams continue their efforts to localize the spreading fire, with additional specialized forces expected to provide support. The situation remains extremely tense and unpredictable.
