Greek fires burn homes and cause helicopter crash
During this summer's wildfire season, Greece has experienced large-scale forest fires that have destroyed over 100 homes northwest of Athens and prompted the evacuation of residents from the tourist island of Kefalonia. These fires are a result of an unprecedented heatwave and drought conditions, exacerbated by climate change. In a tragic incident, two helicopters collided while fighting the fires in the Attica region, leading to the crash and destruction of one of the aircraft. Unverified video footage suggested the collision. The current fires are part of a heatwave that has caused fires to subside in France and Spain, but Greece is witnessing a new surge in wildfires despite some recent setbacks.
