We do not expect the fire to spread further, because all possible means are mobilized as much as possible. Such a statement made today the Vice Prime Minister of Georgia.

“It is too early to talk about the damage. We do not expect further spread, as all possible means are mobilized as much as possible to bring the fire under control in time and to localize it and finally extinguish it.

The forces of several agencies were immediately mobilized - emergency, forestry, rangers, defense - all fighting the fire. In addition, technological tools are used and there is also assistance from neighboring countries. Neighbors immediately declared their readiness to help, and I want to thank them.

As for why it is not possible and what were the reasons - the reason, of course, will be determined by the investigation, although it is very hard to imagine something surprising here, it is high temperatures, summer season. The last period of August is the most risky period. The previous fires when we had a fire season in the country it was during this period”, - said Levan Davitashvili.
