The Macedonian government has officially announced a state of crisis across the entire national territory due to the elevated risk of open and uncontrolled fires. This declared crisis situation is set to remain in effect for a period of 30 days, commencing on August 1st. The declaration mandates that all actions must be coordinated to ensure the effective mobilization of institutional capacities.
The primary objective is the comprehensive protection of the population, private property, and natural resources against potential fire hazards. To manage this elevated risk, the Chief Crisis Management Staff (CMS), based at Centarot, has been activated. This staff body will operate on a standing basis, maintaining 24-hour readiness.
Its immediate responsibilities include developing a detailed action plan for both fire prevention and management. Furthermore, the CMS must conduct a thorough review of all available human resources and material-technical assets. A key component of the activation is preparing a unified plan for coordinated action among all relevant governmental and auxiliary institutions.
The government has issued directives, assigning specific tasks to all pertinent bodies to ensure a structured and unified response throughout the duration of the declared crisis period.
