    WOOD FIRES IN LORI PROVINCE

    ARMENPRESS
    NOVEMBER 23, 2010
    VANADZOR

    Fires are going on to break out in wood areas and fields of Lori
    province because of burning of grass cover. Head of the Rescue Service
    of the province Hrach Antonyan told Armenpress that 18 fires have
    burnt within the last 10 days. The cases have been mainly registered
    in Gugark, Tashir, and in the neighboring territories of Vanadzor.

    Mr. Antonyan said that the rescue service of Lori province, the fire
    brigade and forest economy sometimes do not have an opportunity to
    extinguish fires in almost impassable territories, in such cases just
    a duty is defined in order to take control over the spread of the
    fire. Residents fire the dry grass cover with confidence that next
    year it will be more luxuriant in the same area, but as a result of
    fires, according to specialists, land becomes subject to erosion,
    and trees suffer.
