Konjic authorities ask for deployment of BiH Army helicopter to deal with fire

“I expect that the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina will send a request to the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina and that they will allow the helicopter to be deployed. If a helicopter is not deployed, the fire will certainly not be extinguished even in 10 days,” Catic said.
He said that the fire engulfed an area of more than 20 hectares so far.
