"The fire threatened to go on the other side of the highway, so we stopped the traffic for half an hour, and if that happened, it would be a danger for local houses".

Well timed intervention managed to stop it and put out the fire, which was carried by wind and it was not easy", said Danko Vuckovic, commander of the Fire brigade in Trebinje after fighting the fire for one hour.

Even tho the fruits burned completely there is no damage, because the trees were dry for a long time, and Agrofin who should is the owner of the lot, are waiting for two years from the government for the concession, said the owner of the company Dragan Andjelic.

It is presumed that the fire was not set intentionally, by the lack of care if the passers or the cattle feeding, which is not so rare cause of fires in Herzegovina.
