Fires in Greece Continue to Burn
Fires in Greece continue burn with over 80 still blazing in the north of the country and in the south peloponnese Peninsula. More than 60 people have now been killed destroying hundreds of homes. Helicopters have been dousing flames, but have not been very effective. Fires in Greece are common during hot dry summers but not like the past week. The government in Greece has issues a reward of up to one million euros for information on any arsonists. The problem at large is the major winds that continue to fuel the fires.
