Greek wildfire eases in Athens suburbs, prompting evacuations

Greece's worst wildfire of the year killed one woman and continued to burn on the outskirts of the capital Athens. In scenes never before seen in the Greek capital, residents wearing masks against the choking smoke were desperately dousing their homes with water hoses in the leafy suburbs of Nea Penteli and Vrilissia in an effort to render them less vulnerable to fire. Hundreds of firefighters backed by six waterbombing aircraft battled the blaze that broke out on Sunday near the village of Varnavas 35 km north of Athens, Reuters reported. Stoked by gale-force winds, the blaze leapt from a wooded, hilly area into the suburbs, torching homes and stirring panic in neighborhoods that had not seen such a fire so close to the center in decades. Television footage showed several cars gutted by fire and the roofs of stately homes burning as water-bombing helicopters roared overhead. “The situation is dramatic,” Penteli Mayor Natassa Kosmopoulou told news portal newsit.gr. “A school and homes are on fire, and I can see the fire coming towards the town hall,” she said. That fire had been buffeted by strong winds, he said, adding they were "making the work of civil protection forces on the ground extremely difficult." The National Observatory, Greece’s foremost institute monitoring natural hazards, narrowly escaped. Government officials warned of a high fire hazard in several areas, including the Athens peninsula and the Boeotia region northwest of it. Officials have issued evacuation orders for several towns north and northwest of Athens, including New and Old Penteli, Patima Chalandriou, Patima Vrilission, Krasa Ano Vrilission, as well as from Dionysos and Marathon. More than 250 people were evacuated with the help of police officers near Athens. Wildfires have been a common feature of Greek summers for years - its deadliest wildfire killed 104 people in the seaside town of Mati, near the capital, in 2018. But climate change has brought hotter weather and less rain, ideal conditions for large-scale fires. http://youtube.com/kanal13az/join - click here and support Kanal13 monthly for distributing more videos and independent journalism http://t.me/kanal13tv & https://bit.ly/37BVMqU https://www.youtube.com/user/kanal13a... https://bit.ly/2Rs6MB3 #lastminutenewsfromukraine #kanal13ukraine https://bit.ly/2V19Fdy Click here and just subscribe to Kanal13 - https://www.youtube.com/user/kanal13a... https://www.youtube.com/KANAL13AZ/join *ATTENTION: If you woul like to contact with US please, write to +49176 75077516 WhatsApp ▌▌►Website: http://kanal13.tv/   / tvkanal13     / kanal13az     / kanal13.az   Click & Subscribe to the main youtube Channel © KANAL13 [ Azərbaycanın ilk peşəkar internet televiziyası ] The First Internet TV of Azerbaijan Tags: #Ukriane, #Russia, #Putin, #Putler, #Russian invasion of Ukraine, #Zelenski, #Kiev, #Kyiv, #Kadirov army, #Kadirov, #Kherson, #Bucha, #Kharkiv, #Ukrainian pilots, #vagners, #Russian tanks, #NATO, #drones, #Moscow, #Kreml, #war victims #Ukraina, News, The Washington Post, waPo Video, Washington Post Video, Washington Post YouTube, a:politics, aid, biden, putin, s:Politics, support, t:Other, Ukraine, war, fact check, news coverage, Donald Trump, news, wp video, forbes, nytimes, newspaper, media, journalism, Ilham Aliyev, Baku, Azerbaijan, Israel, Gaza, Palestine, Tel-Aviv, Garabag, Karabakh, football, ronaldo, messi, brian tyler cohen
