The head of the MSB describes the situation as "the most serious and difficult situation in which the Swedish relief services were located".
– I would like to warn you to underestimate the situation. It can still degenerate. The situation is serious, he says
Can the government or MSB currently see what the current rescue efforts can cost Sweden?
– This is very difficult to say at the moment. As the Director-General says, we must now wait for the rain. But the most important thing right now is that all the necessary resources will be yours. Costs what it costs, says Prime Minister Löfven to DN.
At the present time, MSB expects some of the most important fires to be extinguished before the temperature recurs, which will be delayed. The 10-day SMHI forecast shows hot, dry weather in most parts of the country. This means that the extinguishing works will last several more weeks.

But I can already assess that our preparation will have to be strengthened for a more extreme time. I also believe that we will have to strengthen the cooperation between our municipalities, the authorities, but also with our northern neighbors, "says Löfven
