“They offered to help us with equipment. Yes, we have also mobilized the equipment, but you can see that we physically cannot use it in large quantities because of the terrain,” Gomelauri said.
According to him, the most effective would be to use airplanes, however, taking into account the scale of forest fires in Europe, Georgia does not expect provision of airplanes.
