"The fire in Blidinje Nature Park is getting out of control," Commander of the Posusje Public Fire Department Mario Cutura said Monday.

“The fire is spreading very quickly and threatens to turn this into an ecological disaster,” he said.

Although the Municipality of Posusje requested the help of the Armed Forces of BiH in extinguishing the fire on Mount Cvrsnica, it has not yet happened.

According to Cutura, it is already too late for the helicopter. The fire on Mount Cvrsnicu in the Blidinje Nature Park has been active since Sunday, and mountaineers, Posusje, Rakitno firefighters, and Posusje and Grude mountaineering societies are participating in its extinguishing.

According to the statements of the mountaineers, the fire was not the result of human carelessness since the location that was burning was extremely inaccessible.
