As reported on March 19, 2026 by the State Emergency Service (SES),<\/strong> during the 24-hour period of March 18<\/strong> wildfires on open terrain were again recorded in the Mykolaiv region. Rescuers responded six times<\/strong> to extinguish fires in reed beds and dry grass. Fire outbreaks occurred on the territory of the Mishkovo-Pohorilivska<\/strong> and Kostiantynivska<\/strong> territorial communities of Mykolaiv district,<\/strong> as well as in the cities of Voznesensk, Pervomaisk<\/strong> and Mykolaiv<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The total area burned in the region over the past 24 hours exceeded 1 hectare<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As an example – a case in Mykolaiv<\/strong>, where firefighters extinguished a dry grass fire covering about 250 sq. m<\/strong> on Architect Starov Street<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

All fires were extinguished promptly. The operation involved 24 rescuers<\/strong> and 6 units<\/strong> of State Emergency Service equipment<\/strong>. The local fire protection unit \u201cHuriivka\u201d also assisted.<\/p>\n

The causes of the fires are currently being determined. The SES once again appeals to citizens to act responsibly, because even a single carelessly thrown match or an intentional ignition can lead to large-scale consequences, especially in windy weather.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cDear citizens, we urge you to be sensible! Every match thrown into dry grass, every deliberately set fire to reeds or rubbish can become the cause of a great disaster that is very difficult to stop, especially in windy conditions. Preserve our shared air, our home and the lives of those around you. See a small fire? Try to extinguish it yourself with available means. Is the fire gaining momentum? Call the Rescue Service at 101<\/strong> and provide the exact address!\u201d, – appealed the State Emergency Service to the region’s residents.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
