The wildfire that was burning for 16 consecutive days at the national forest of Valia Kalda between the villages of Vovoussa and Perivoli was finally set under total control.
According to the chief of Grevena Fire Brigade Antonis Kelaidopoulos, the fire has been contained while a five-member team of firefirefighers remains in the area. He also said that strong rain fell on Saturday in the area of Valia Kalda, something that facilitated the work of the firefighters.
It is noted that it was a crawling fire that burned low plantation and scrubland. The forest of robola and black pines were not affected.
