A major fire front has been destroying forested areas in Pukë for hours, while the flames continue to spread across several zones and the environmental damage is widening. Aerial footage offers a grim picture of the situation, with entire areas covered in smoke and engulfed by fire.
The flames have spread to several areas
According to the published information, dozens of hectares of forest have been affected by the fire in Pukë, where the flames have continued for hours without stopping.
The fire fronts have spread across the areas of Gojan, Gjegjan and Haxhiaj, burning considerable green surfaces and worsening the environmental toll of the incident.
Aerial images show the scale of the damage
Drone footage highlights the scale of the fire, with entire forested areas engulfed in flames and thick clouds of smoke hanging over the area.
The scene on the ground points to a serious situation, where the damage caused to the forests appears extensive and with direct consequences for the local ecosystem.
Residents face a worrying situation
The spread of the fire has also raised concern among residents of the affected areas, as the flames have advanced from one point to another.
Beyond official statements about intervention on the ground, what can be seen in the footage is an emergency that remains serious and still far from over.
Authorities say they are working to isolate the fire fronts
According to the official version, authorities and civil emergency structures are on the ground and continuing efforts to bring the fire fronts under control.
So far, no further data has been provided on the cause of the fire or on the real extent of the damage, while the spread of the flames shows that the situation remains critical.
In the absence of a more complete institutional assessment, images from the area remain the clearest indication of the scale of the damage in Pukë.
For now, what is known is that the fire continues to consume forested land, while full control of the fire fronts has not yet been achieved.
