Earlier, fires erupted once again in the mountainous forests in Kafr Laha, Ayn al-Khanzer area , extending to Ayn al-Dora, southwest of Masyaf city in Hama countryside as the firefighting teams worked to extinguish them in the early morning hours and conduct cooling operations.
Director of agriculture Department in Hama, Abdel Moneim Sabbagh, said in a statement to SANA reporter that the fires erupted again in the aforementioned area as a result of strong winds and the high temperature.
He pointed out to the rocky terrain of the area and big efforts made by firefighting teams to control the fire, which required sending additional reinforcements from fire engines and firefighting teams to deal with the fire more effectively.
