Greece battles wildfires, evacuating residents near Athens
Wildfires are raging near Athens, Greece, forcing residents to evacuate their homes. The fires are located approximately 30km from the capital city. Authorities are battling the blazes as temperatures are predicted to soar to 44 degrees Celsius (111 degrees Fahrenheit) on Sunday, exacerbating the already dangerous situation. Evacuation orders have been issued for several communities in the affected area, and firefighters are struggling to contain the rapidly spreading flames due to strong winds and the extreme heat.
