Defence Minister Radmila Sekerinska met on Tuesday the soldiers dealing with the forest fire near the Kokino archaeological locality. Sekerinska thanked the soldiers for their efforts for putting the fires under control, as well as the civil volunteers who came from Kumanovo and the surrounding areas to assist them. “Only if we work together, we can deal with these challenges and serious dangers and we can save our surroundings. Soldiers from the Army of North Macedonia are already deployed on different locations around the country where there are forest fires. We were also promised help from our neighbours in Serbia, as well as our NATO allies Bulgaria and Slovenia. Many other Balkan countries and Turkey are also facing problems with fires, and in times like these we need to be united and help each other,” Sekerinska said.
