The two fires they are fighting near Konjic are not just approaching the houses in the town, but an ammunition factory.
To make matters even worse, one of the fires has started burning through a mine field, which was placed during the 1990s war.
Heat from the fire is setting off the mines, making it impossible for firefighters to get close to the flames.
Heavy winds have also hampered the fight, by keeping helicopters and aircraft grounded.
Other fires are burning elsewhere in the country, which is facing historical heat.
Nowhere in Bosnia has seen rain in over two months.
