The director of the Syrian Civil Defense in the coastal region, Abdul Kafi Kayal, reported that firefighting teams have made significant progress in combating the fires raging in the northern countryside of Latakia over the past week, where the number of active fire spots has been greatly reduced and cooled.


Kayal stated to "SANA" that "the efforts exerted by all teams participating in the extinguishing operations have led to a significant reduction in the number of active fire spots and their cooling," noting that the firefighting teams continue their work to control the remaining spots and prevent them from spreading to new green areas.


He added that the teams worked overnight on "dividing the fire sites, opening new roads, to be able to control the fire and prevent its spread," indicating that some teams are currently working on cooling operations, while others are securing water supplies to prevent any re-ignition.


Kayal expected that "in the coming hours, an announcement will be made about fully controlling the fire, starting extensive cooling operations, and monitoring to ensure complete extinguishment."


In addition to local efforts, many countries participated in the firefighting operations, as Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, and Cyprus sent firefighting teams and helicopters to assist in extinguishing the fires. United Nations teams were also present on the ground to conduct urgent assessments to determine the extent of the disaster and the urgent humanitarian needs.


As part of the compensatory efforts, the Governor of Latakia, Mohammad Othman, and the Minister of Emergency and Disaster Management, Raed Al-Saleh, launched the campaign "We Revive It with Our Hands," which aims to reforest the affected forests, restore the mountainous areas consumed by the fires, and provide assistance to the affected people.


It is worth mentioning that the ongoing fires for the past seven days in the northern countryside of Latakia have caused significant environmental damage, while local and international teams continue their work to achieve final control over the situation.
