Record heat in the Balkans & other news in Albania..

Map of the Balkans..

This is one of the hottest summers in the Balkans in recorded history. People have been reported to fainting in the streets and there are an outrageous amount of wildfires soaring through the woods; I have noticed them here in Albania across the country. Wildfire operations have been put in place in Kukes, the region directly to the south of Tropoje to help and try extinguish the fires. Greece and Albania have been receiving help from other parts of Europe to help extinguish these out of control fires. This might explain why my friends in Kukes never have water when they're supposed to..
