Aircraft and helicopters have been used in efforts to control the flames, with evacuations underway in areas near Athens as well as in French and Spanish towns. The hot weather conditions and strong winds have accelerated the spread of the fires, prompting authorities to evacuate hundreds of thousands of residents amid ongoing threats of new blazes and diminishing control over certain areas.
