The Mongolian government issued a communiqué on the 26th saying that at a government work meeting held on the same day, Mongolian Prime Minister Uchirle characterized the large-scale grassland fire that occurred this month in the Numrug Nature Reserve in the eastern part of the country as a serious ecological incident. An official investigation by Mongolia initially confirmed that the fire was caused by the fleet activities of the Mongolian Japanese-owned telecommunications company Mobikang. The Mongolian side will thoroughly investigate and pursue accountability, recover ecological losses, and promote ecosystem restoration in accordance with the law. “Approximately 80% of the area of the Numrug Nature Reserve was affected by fires. It's not just a matter of land being burned.” Uqirle said that this is a serious loss of Mongolia's pristine natural environment, rare wild animal and plant species, and natural heritage.
