Forests today have numerous risks where they are reduced or destroyed and one of the major risks is forest fires which we as a state cannot afford. and we are exempt.Forest fires are the spontaneous and uncontrolled spread of fire in the natural environment. The size of the burned area and the severity of the fire depend on the type of vegetation affected by the fire. The dimensions of these natural disasters are often of such magnitude as are visible from space, such as the fires in Siberian rainforest and the Amazon this year. Characteristic of forest fires is the very rapid spread and sudden changes of direction due to weather conditions.The strategy for combating forest fires includes their prevention to prevent, early detect and suppress and to develop means to effectively combat this type of natural disaster.European Commission reports on forest fires in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa for 2017 say more than 1.2 million hectares of forest and land in Europe have been destroyed - more than the total area of Cyprus.The forest fires killed 127 civilians and firefighters and caused nearly 10 billion euros in economic damage.Mavrovo National Park undertakes fire prevention measures in the area covered primarily by appropriate forest endangerment plans, operational fire protection measures as well as innovative means of drone drone use in the area. as part of the ASPires Advanced Forest Fire Prevention and Early Detection Systems that control the area for early fire warning.The strategy for combating forest fires includes their prevention to prevent, early detect and suppress and to develop means to effectively combat this type of natural disaster.
