Black landscape and emptiness – “the largest fire ever recorded in EU”, turned Evros into a gloomy desert.
The 57-second drone footage shows the unprecedented destruction on the eighth day of the fiery tragedy.
Experts can not find words to describe the horror. You have to see it with your own eyes:
Firefighters, soldiers, volunteers and ordinary citizens selflessly fight in the fight against fires. Help with extinguishing provides the European Civil Protection Mechanism with the participation of the forces of Cyprus (2 aircraft operating in Dadia Evros and 31 firefighters in the Fili region of Attica), Croatia (1 aircraft in Dadia Evros), Germany (2 aircraft in the Fili region of Attica), Sweden (2 aircraft in the Fili region of Attica), Czech Republic (1 helicopter in Boeotia), Romania (51 firefighters with 10 vehicles operating in the Sicorrah and Sappes PE Evros regions), Bulgaria (36 firefighters with 4 vehicles operating in the Koila region Evros), Slovakia (39 firefighters with 8 vehicles operating in the Filis area of Attica). Assistance is also provided by the pre-installation program – from France (16 firefighters with 3 vehicles operating in the Fili region of Attica), through an interstate agreement from Albania (46 firefighters with 5 vehicles operating in the Dadia forest).
