Wildfire Perimeters in Attika - Greece - July 2018 - Copernicus Emergency management service

Two large fires broke out on the central-southern Greece mainland (Attica region) areas of Rafina located east of Athens and Kineta located west of Athens on 23 July 2018, causing significant casualties, village evacuations, damage to property while burning thousands of hectares of forestry.

These two large wildfires could be associated with dry conditions and high temperatures that all Europe is experiencing along July 2018.
