Croatian Officials Evacuate 500 from Brač Island
Croatian authorities evacuated around 500 people from the island of Brač amid a large wildfire that destroyed approximately 3,500 hectares of pine forests and shrublands, particularly in the Milna tourist area. This was carried out using various boats to transport residents, with four "Canadair" aircraft and 220 firefighters supported by 69 vehicles working to contain the fire. Wind conditions continue to make firefighting efforts more challenging. Two people were injured, one of them seriously, and the fire is believed to have been caused by strong winds. Experts anticipate that the flames will be under control by the end of the day.
