Investigation into Aytou fire suspicions
A Syrian individual named «E.Y.» has been detained by the Information Branch of the Internal Security Forces. The arrest took place on suspicion of involvement in the fires on Mount Aitu in Zgharta, which caused extensive damage to large areas of forest. The detainee works in a field related to land and forestry. This detention is part of ongoing investigations to uncover the causes of the fires and to determine the extent of «E.Y.»'s responsibility, as investigations are still underway to gather evidence and establish accountability. The fire on Mount Aitu was massive, lasting several days, and required intervention from civil defense and army units using helicopters due to the difficult terrain. It resulted in significant damage in an area rich in trees and vegetation, with the possibility of fires occurring again because of the sensitive nature of the region. The investigation is considering natural causes, human negligence, or deliberate acts, and efforts are ongoing to identify the true responsible parties.
