Due to the mountainous terrain, dry vegetation and hot weather, the fire spread quickly, making it difficult to fight the fire. Authorities used manual means, created firebreaks, and cleared the surrounding area to prevent the fire from spreading.

By 4:00 p.m. on August 11, the fire was under control.

By 4 p.m., the fire was basically under control, but about 3,000 square meters of forest were burned. The initial cause was determined to be that people burned bees, causing the fire to spread.
