The Emirati rescue team has intensified its efforts to combat wildfires in various regions of Albania, collaborating with local authorities. This initiative is part of the United Arab Emirates’ ongoing commitment to international humanitarian missions and enhancing rapid disaster response globally, showcasing its strong humanitarian principles grounded in solidarity and international cooperation.
Under the guidance of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, the team is scaling up its field operations. Equipped with state-of-the-art tools, they focus on effectively managing the fires and preventing their reoccurrence.
The UAE began its firefighting operations last Tuesday, following the arrival of aircraft and specialized teams the previous day. Since then, they have conducted numerous aerial sorties, deploying thousands of kilograms of water to assist in extinguishing the flames and curbing further spread.
