The Forestry Ministry has targeted 32 companies suspected of involvement in forest and land fires, encompassing a concession area of 1.93 million hectares, according to Xinhua quoting Antoni on Wednesday. Approximately 18,000 hectares of land within the concession areas have been severely damaged by the fires, Antoni said, adding that the new measure includes suspending operations for six companies and ordering them to restore the affected ecosystem.
The ministry may also proceed with criminal proceedings against the implicated companies if investigations reveal evidence of a legal violation, he said. Antoni stated that the relevant ministry is controlling 120 cases related to forest and land fires, with further developments expected to be clarified next week.
