Firefighters bring forest fire in White Carpathians under control

Twenty firefighter units have brought a forest fire in the White Carpathians in the Hodonín region under control after over five hours. The blaze broke out on Sunday morning in a hardly accessible terrain and spread to an area of 500 to 500 metres. The situation was further complicated by a strong wind, which prevented the firefighters from using helicopters. The cause of the forest fire has not yet been established.
