Firefighting teams are continuing intensive efforts at the Melci depot following yesterday’s blaze. According to Mitko Jankev, the town mayor and chief of the city’s fire department, operations will remain active until the fire is completely extinguished and conditions are stabilized under control. Mayor Jankev addressed the situation, stating that the incident represents a threat not only to the depot but also to the city, its residents, and the environment.
He emphasized that the relevant institutions must be held accountable through the legal process to its conclusion. Jankev stressed that individuals who deliberately compromise the health and safety of citizens must face appropriate penalties. The scale of the fire necessitated significant operational changes, resulting in the temporary closure of the fire department’s Krizna headquarters for a period of one week.
The ongoing response underscores the seriousness of the event. The dedicated teams are working to manage the aftermath of the fire, ensuring that all potential hazards are mitigated. Authorities are maintaining a high level of vigilance as they work to fully contain the situation at the Melci site.
The focus remains on ensuring public safety while the crews continue their difficult work to extinguish the last embers of the fire.
