Greek police arrest Israeli over forest fire
Greek police have arrested a 35-year-old Israeli suspect believed to be responsible for starting a forest fire on the island of Crete. The suspect was reportedly grilling food during a period of high fire risk. The fire broke out on Friday evening near the village of Agios Vasileios in the region of Rethymno and burned a small area that firefighters managed to control within about four hours. This comes at a time when Greece, especially Crete, is experiencing a wave of wildfires due to adverse weather conditions, with authorities expecting the suspect to face legal proceedings. The incidents are part of an ongoing severe fire season showing an increased likelihood of continued fires.
