Prime Minister Edi Rama has warned that intentional arson will be treated as murder in the Criminal Code.
"The act of intentionally starting a fire is not only a crime, but also a serious violation of the land and the future of the country," Rama said.
Air Force drone footage has documented an intentional arson, while the State Police continues to work to identify and prosecute those responsible.
In the context of the increase in fire incidents in the Mediterranean region, authorities emphasize the importance of legal action to prevent and punish arsonists.
