A fire that broke out at the end of last week and flared up again closed the first-class way past Pleven, NOVA reported.

Dry grasses and abandoned vineyards are burning. The fire is localized and there is no danger to the city, the firefighters assured.

Four fire brigades are on site.

People in Pleven are very scared.

Comments appeared on social networks that the air is very stuffy and soot is falling on the city. It is claimed on social networks that volunteers are not allowed to participate in the extinguishing.

There are several fires in Pleven. In addition to the one near the village of Grivitsa, a fire broke out on the Northern arc of the ring road.

In the words of the residents of the neighborhood "Druzhba" the fire is less than 500 m from the first residential buildings.

People claim that the fire cannot be localized for the second day and express suspicion that someone is deliberately provoking them, because according to them, new outbreaks can be seen locally at long distances from each other, BNT reported.
