In the face of escalating forest fires across several provinces of the country, public authorities have initiated a wide-scale mobilization, bringing together all relevant departments. Monitored directly by the Minister of the Interior, Local Communities, and Transport, Said Sayoud, operations continue on all fronts with the primary goal of protecting0 residents, preserving forest areas, and stopping the spread of the flames. This was announced on Tuesday in a statement from the ministry.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Said Sayoud is personally tracking the situation’s development and has issued directives to “mobilize all necessary human, material, logistical, and aerial resources” while boosting cooperation among the various entities to guarantee a fast and efficient response to every active fire, the same source added. This coordinated response brings together all players involved in natural disaster management.<\/p>\n

The focus is on the synergy of the deployed resources, allowing for simultaneous interventions across multiple affected zones and enabling the emergency setup to adapt as the situation changes. This strategy is designed to combat fires impacting forest areas, brush, scrubland, and agricultural fields under conditions where high temperatures and weather patterns encourage the rapid spread of fire.<\/p>\n

On the ground, the response is supported by a highly significant deployment. Mobile Civil Protection units, backed by teams specialized in forest fires and equipped with a substantial fleet of emergency vehicles, are deployed as close to the blazes as possible. In hard-to-reach areas, aerial resources consisting of water-bombing planes and helicopters play a crucial role by conducting multiple water drops to slow the progression of the flames and support ground crews.<\/p>\n

Members of the National People’s Army, various security bodies, the forestry service, and local administrative bodies are also participating in this mobilization. This inter-sectoral coordination helps ensure continuous monitoring of threatened areas, evacuating residents when necessary, and focusing efforts on the most vulnerable sectors.<\/p>\n

The oversight of operations is conducted at the highest level. The governors of the affected provinces visited the impacted sites to supervise the operations, assess the needs of the mobilized teams, and ensure the proper execution of emergency plans. Their presence on the ground also aims to guarantee constant coordination between the different services engaged in the firefighting efforts.<\/p>\n

In the same vein, the Director General of Civil Protection, Colonel Boualem Boughlaf, traveled to the provinces of Bejaia and Setif. This field visit allowed him to directly monitor the firefighting efforts, assess the deployment of active resources, and ensure the efficiency of the measures established to tackle the changing fire fronts.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the Ministry of the Interior announced that operations are continuing “at a steady pace until all fire fronts are fully under control.” Teams remain mobilized day and night to prevent any flare-ups and to contain the flames before they reach new sensitive areas. Monitoring remains constant, even after the main fires are put out, to prevent any reignition caused by winds or high temperatures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
