The fire swept through vegetation and homes on Thursday, 13 August.\n\nThere is no further information on the cause or current status of the fire.\n\nDW News reported on a separate story about German farmers expecting below-average harvests due to drought and high temperatures, but this is unrelated to the Croatian wildfire.",
