Tourists leave Greek Kalydiki after fire
A large wildfire broke out in the Chalchidiki region in northern Greece, causing tourists and residents from neighboring areas to flee as the flames approached tourist resorts. Firefighting teams deployed more than 140 personnel, along with nine planes and seven helicopters, in an effort to control the blaze and protect the population. The fire resulted in injury to one firefighter and disruptions to traffic, with evacuation operations involving rescue boats and coast guard vessels. It is worth noting that heatwaves and droughts driven by climate change have intensified forest fires across Europe on an unprecedented scale this summer, threatening tourist areas and residential neighborhoods in Greece and other countries.
