Extinguishing it is difficult due to strong winds blowing in the 7-8 Beaufort region and its inaccessible location.
It will be an all-night battle with the flames in Koronos Naxos, where the fire that broke out on Thursday afternoon in the area south of the Wind Park and spread a little later due to strong winds continues to burn grassy areas and pastures.
According to the fire department, although the fire is now a little better, extinguishing it is difficult due to the strong winds blowing in the 7-8 Beaufort region and its difficult location.
Huge extinguishing efforts are being made by the Fire Brigade forces that are at the scene. The force was reinforced with 19 firefighters, 1 infantry unit, 6 vehicles, two aircraft and two helicopters.
The anxiety of the area’s breeders who are trying to save their animals from the fire is enormous.
According to the president of Koronos, Yiannis Constantakis, the fire, for now at least, does not threaten residential areas, but it is dangerous for the animals in the area and efforts are being made to save them.
The mayor of Naxos and Small Cyclades, Dimitris Lianos, is also in the area of the fire to monitor the developments closely.
It should be noted that the fire that had initially caught the wind turbine of the Koron wind farm was extinguished.
The smoke from the fire has engulfed the surrounding areas and has reached the coasts (Moutsuna, Ligaridia, etc.).
