Roon Border Guard Station participates in fighting forest fire in Deo Ngang

At about 2:00 p.m. the same day, a fire broke out at plot 1, subdivision 151, protective forest of Vinh Son village, Phu Trach commune.

Receiving the news and request for support from the locality, Roon Border Guard Station ( Quang Tri Provincial Border Guard) in charge of the area mobilized 15 officers and soldiers to coordinate with the police, commune militia, forest rangers, forest protection forces and local authorities, a total of about 50 people to urgently approach the scene.

Due to the mountainous terrain, dry vegetation and hot weather, the fire spread quickly, making it difficult to fight the fire. Authorities used manual means, created firebreaks, and cleared the surrounding area to prevent the fire from spreading.

By 4 p.m., the fire was basically under control, but about 3,000 square meters of forest were burned. The initial cause was determined to be that people burned bees, causing the fire to spread.
