Skopje, 5 August 2024 (MIA) - No need for panic and alarm among the population, because neither Bogdanci nor any other settlement is threatened by the fire in this region, head of the Crisis Management Center (CMC) Stojanche Angelov said in a video post on CMC's YouTube channel on Monday. 

Angelov noted that priority has been given to this fire, with six air tractors and helicopters being sent on Sunday. They helped, but unfortunately, the fire has not been contained, he added.

People from the voluntary firefighting associations from Valandovo and Dojran have been battling the fire, as well as professional firefighters from Valandovo, Gevgelija, Kavadarci and Strumica.
