The fire at Metković is being put out by firefighters and canadians, the houses are not threatened yet

A fire broke out in a swampy area near the natural reserve in Metković on Monday evening. Firefighters from Metković, assisted by a drone, managed to extinguish the blaze without any houses being threatened. The fire was located in a difficult-to-reach area, making access challenging for emergency services. Fire Chief Stjepan Simović confirmed that while the fire front was at least a kilometer long, residential areas were close enough to warrant constant monitoring. He emphasized that the area remains problematic due to its inaccessibility. Separately, fires on Hvar and in Vinča over the weekend were determined to be accidental, caused by lightning strikes and contact between tree branches and power lines. Police concluded that these incidents were not intentional and were the result of natural causes.
