Localized fire near Slivna, 145 hectares burned; still burning in the area of Dinara; HVZ: For smoke follow the instructions of the service
A fire that started on September 4th near Slivna in the Šibenik-Knin County has been localized by Sunday evening, affecting 145 hectares of grassland, low vegetation, and pine forest. The fire was extinguished by 10 firefighters using three fire trucks from IVP Šibenik and DVD Brodarica Krapanj. Another fire continues to burn in the area of Dinara and Polaća, reported on September 1st, covering an unspecified area of grassland, low vegetation, and shrubs. Over the past few days, there have been several instances of smoke and reactivation of the fire. Eight firefighters used three fire trucks during the weekend intervention. Smoke and the smell of burning debris in Dalmatia are linked to large fires in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Croatian Fire Service advises citizens to close windows and follow instructions from local authorities. They also warn against approaching fire sites for photography or filming, which endangers people and hinders firefighting efforts.

A total of 80 firefighters with 27 vehicles worked to suppress this fire, supported by two helicopters and two AirTractors, one of which had been redirected from its initial reconnaissance mission. Firefighters also placed under control a fire near the village of Dicmo-Sičane, affecting six hectares of grassland, low vegetation, and shrubs. Fifteen firefighters with five fire engines tackled the blaze, aided by a reconnaissance aircraft AirTractor.
