Greek wildfire now EU’s largest on record

Despite the concerted efforts of hundreds of firefighters and a squadron of water-dispersing aircraft from Greece and various European Union partners, a colossal wildfire continued to rage uncontrollably in northeastern Greece on the 11th consecutive day as of Tuesday.

Having consumed expansive stretches of land, the inferno within the Alexandroupolis and Evros region primarily persisted within a dense forest near the border shared with Turkey, nestled within a challenging-to-reach location.

This wildfire, attributed to 20 out of the 21 wildfire-linked fatalities in Greece the previous week, stands as the largest in the European Union since records began in 2000 through the European Forest Fire Information System.

A team of 475 firefighters on the ground received support from six aircraft and four helicopters, complemented by 100 vehicles, according to the fire department, Fox News reported.
