On the evening of June 28, Mr. Pham Cong Quoc, Chairman of the People's Committee of Binh Nam Commune (Thang Binh District, Quang Nam Province) said that by about 5:00 p.m. the same day, authorities and people had extinguished the fire in the acacia forest area in the area.

Earlier, at around 4:00 p.m. the same day, the locality received information about a fire that broke out in a forest located east of Highway 129. This is a local acacia forest and part of it is a protective forest under the PACSA project.

Fire burns fiercely

Local authorities including police, militia, military command, local people and forest rangers quickly arrived at the scene to put out the fire.

Many people traveling on Highway 129 had their vision obstructed by smoke. The fierce fire burned a large area of forest trees and vegetation on the ground.

Authorities are currently assessing the damage and investigating the cause of the fire.

The fire damaged large areas of coastal forests.

Smoke billows, obstructing visibility for vehicles on Highway 129.
