A fire broke out today in the electrical substation of Draçin in Shkodër, causing power outages in some areas of the city.
According to sources for A2 CNN, it is reported that the reasons for the fire explosion still remain unclear, but it is suspected that it may have been caused by a defect in the equipment of the electrical substation.
The fire also involved two other electrical substations, worsening the situation, A2 CNN reports.
Meanwhile, some family members have suffered an economic damage of over 10 million old lek, because the fire from the substation involved some decorative objects that were in the yard of their house.
In the apartment, an elderly woman says that she was with a small child and was traumatized, fearing that the oils of the transformers could explode. The family members ask to be compensated by OSHEE because the damage caused is great.
The director of the fire department in Shkodër, Agim Ponari, says that there were 5 fires at the same time. Initially, it was announced about the explosion of an electric cabin in Kiras, and then 3 other small electric cabins exploded due to the electric charge.
In the end, the electric substation of Draçin also exploded. Director Ponari says that as soon as the firefighters received the notifications, they immediately went to all the fire stations, where they received the notification and extinguished the flames. (A2 Televizion)
