With extensive reports, photos and videos, the international media capture the devastating fire that broke out in Varnavas yesterday and spread throughout Northeast Attica
The fiery inferno that Attica has been experiencing since noon on Sunday has been circulating around the world, as several international news media such as the Associated Press, Reuters, Le Figaro, Liberation and the BBC, are documenting the dramatic situation prevailing in the basin.
The fire has been the main news of the agencies since the morning:
The Associated Press headline “Fires near the capital of Greece darken the sky above Athens and they are moving fast“, describes the difficult situation that prevails in the basin with the strong winds that carry the smell of burning and the smoke.
Reuters headlined: “People rush to get away from fires near Athens as they spread ‘like lightning,'” he notes that flames fueled by high temperatures and warm air masses burned trees, houses and cars and sent clouds of smoke over the Greek capital.
The British agency BBC in its report entitled “Thousands flee their homes as flames approach Athens”
The Chinese news agency Xinhua is talking about dozens of simultaneous fire fronts in Greece.
Wildfires broke out near Athens, forcing an evacuation. Thankfully, no injuries have been reported so far. Greece’s Fire Brigade faced dozens of wildfire fronts daily over the past few weeks. Keep alert and stay safe! #ClimateChange #wildfires https://t.co/01KX8fRZPw pic.twitter.com/G7iITAaUg6
