Shkruar nga PamfletiWhile the landfill fire has been burning for days, with slow interventions, firefighters and Elbasan municipality officials are showing an inability to contain the flames. The Armed Forces have been engaged in the operation, but the situation remains out of control, highlighting the lack of a clear plan and effective coordination by the Ministry of Defense .
The Ministry of Defense has published updated data on the fire situation in the country over the last 24 hours.
During the last 24 hours, 28 fires have been reported, of which 2 are still active. These fires have been identified in the municipalities of Elbasan, Durrës, Vlira, Finiqi, Selenica, Himara, Delvina, Skrapar, Shkodra, Vau i Dejës, Malesia e Madhe, Tirana, Kavaja, Korça and Lezha.
The situation is more problematic in Elbasan.
The non-functional Elbasan landfill and incinerator, located about 2 kilometers to the right of the road axis connecting Bradashesh to the city's Ring Road, has continued to burn for more than 10 hours.
The landfill is managed by the public company "Eco-Elb", owned by the 7 constituent municipalities of the Elbasan district, and administered by Leli Kaja.
Currently, Leli Kaja's "Eco-Elb" is under investigation by the Elbasan Prosecutor's Office, an investigation that started precisely with an arson attack. The investigation initially began in 2023 for "Destruction of property by fire" and "Air pollution", but now it turns out to have extended deep into the economic activity of this company and the 7 municipalities that are owners.
Although "Eco-Elb" is under investigation by the Prosecutor's Office for deliberate arson, pollution and destruction of property, the Ministry of Defense and local authorities have failed to manage and prevent the ecological disaster in the heart of the city.

The Armed Forces have been engaged in the operation, but the situation remains out of control, highlighting the lack of a clear plan and effective coordination by the Ministry of Defense.
The Ministry of Defense also reports on fires in the municipality of Finiq, where intervention has been difficult due to the terrain, but here too it seems that no precautionary measures have been taken to prevent the outbreak of fires.
Meanwhile, forecasts from the Institute of Geosciences warn of a high risk of fires for several regions, including Tirana and Durrës, increasing the need for urgent and massive action by the authorities.
Citizens are invited to exercise maximum caution and avoid any dangerous actions, while the truth is that the main responsibility for managing the situation and minimizing damage falls on the Ministry of Defense and the company "Eco-Elb", which have so far failed in their duty.
Under these conditions, an in-depth investigation and immediate action are urgent to guarantee the safety and health of the community and the environment in the Elbasan region.
