Wildfires are raging through Greece and Turkey, forcing thousands to flee, and killing a volunteer firefighter on the fringes of Athens in a huge forest blaze that threatened the Greek capital’s most important national park. Eight people have died in Turkey’s blazes, described as the worst in decades, that swept through parts of the southern coast for the past 10 days. Greece has suffered from record heat, and the Civil Protection chief Nikos Hardalias said firefighters faced “exceptionally dangerous, unprecedented conditions” as they battled 154 wildfires Friday, with 64 still burning into the night. Flames swept through a residential town outside Athens overnight as wildfires burned across Greece for a fifth day, and hundreds of people were evacuated by ferry from the island of Evia east of the capital https://t.co/gHkg9p5OMb pic.twitter.com/GCL6hK4wYI — Reuters (@Reuters) August 7, 2021 These are armageddon style images on a developing and devastating situation ..
