The funeral of a 13-year-old girl, a resident of Chalkidiki, who died from a lightning strike, took place on July 2 at the local city cemetery.
According to MEGA TV channel, the last farewell of the girl's family, relatives and friends took place in the church of Agios Georgios in Nea Moudania (Chalkidiki). The girl's parents were inconsolable at their daughter's funeral and have been experiencing their own Golgotha since Friday afternoon.
Let us recall that the tragic incident occurred in Posidi in Chalkidiki last Friday, when a severe thunderstorm with hurricane and lightning broke out. The girl was swimming in the sea with her parents, and because of the storm they decided to go ashore. However, at that moment lightning struck and fatally wounded the girl in front of her parents..
The bathers immediately called EKAV, but unfortunately it was too late for the unfortunate woman.Lightning entered the left eyebrow and came out from behind– says her father. – Lightning struck right in front of us. My wife was in front. My daughter was 1.5 meters behind her. They both fell to the ground, into the sand. It wasn't in the sea, it was on the beach. My little girl never got up again.“.
“The full force of lightning, millions of volts, fell on her. We resuscitated the child until the ambulance arrived. But it was all in vain” said the grief-stricken father.
