Greece in flames, fires destroy 150 houses on the island of Evia

At least 150 houses were destroyed by a violent fire that broke out on the Greek island of Evia, surrounding a monastery and forcing around twenty villages to evacuate. For the firefighters, about a hundred in the field supported by seven helicopters, it is “a fire difficult to tame” also due to poor visibility. But three monks from the monastery of St. David are refusing to leave the island. “We are suffocating from the smoke,” said one of the monks on the phone to the Ana news agency of flames 30 to 40 meters high around the monastery. On the other hand, 85 people were evacuated this morning on a beach aboard five boats. “We ask the authorities to strengthen the air and ground forces in order not to risk human lives,” Ana Giorgos Tsapourniotis, the mayor of Limni, told the news agency. Meanwhile, the firefighters this morning are continuing to try to put out a fire near Athens and the mayor of Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, has asked for help. “We are fighting a battle between titans! – said the deputy minister of civil protection Nikos Hardalias at a press conference – The most difficult is yet to come”.
