A hero has taken flight! The HRZ firefighting plane soared from the “Colonel Mirko Vukušić” barracks on a mission of mercy to the Republic of North Macedonia. The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Croatia proudly announced this international humanitarian effort to combat raging wildfires.
Ten brave souls from the Croatian Air Force, including two crews and aviation technical experts, led by Colonels Milan Došen and Željko Maljko, journeyed to North Macedonia. Commander Colonel Darko Kučej of the 855th firefighting squadron assured that preparations were complete for their vital mission.
Under the directive of Vice President and Minister of Defense Ivan Anušić, the Canadair CL-415 aircraft from the Specially Organized Firefighting Forces will valiantly battle the inferno in North Macedonia. The call for aid has been answered, and hope shines bright as these courageous individuals stand ready to combat the blaze.
