Greek wildfires burn over 12,000 hectares
Greece is experiencing ongoing wildfires that have destroyed more than 12,000 hectares of land, with new outbreaks emerging in multiple areas, especially around Porto Germeno near Athens. Fires have also broken out on several islands, such as Crete and Paros, which have burned approximately 6,000 hectares. The fires in Porto Germeno are believed to have exceeded 10,000 hectares, double the initial estimates, classifying them as massive blazes. Firefighting teams are struggling to control the fires due to strong winds and difficult weather conditions. The fires have resulted in the deaths of three firefighters and injuries to dozens of others. Efforts to extinguish the flames continue, amid the possibility of new outbreaks. Greece is among the countries severely impacted by wildfires in the Mediterranean region, driven by rising temperatures and droughts associated with the climate crisis.
