Greece Wildfire: Evacuations Ordered in Kefalonia & Attica, Hundreds Flee Coastal Towns!

Wildfires raged out of control across Greece on Sunday, forcing urgent evacuations on the Ionian island of Kefalonia and throughout the western Attica region near Athens as gale-force winds severely hampered aerial firefighting operations. Authorities issued emergency evacuation orders for multiple inland and coastal communities, including Kandili, Agia Skepi, Toutouli, and Porto Germeno, where flames burned dangerously close to residential areas and industrial zones outside Megara. With nearly 500 firefighters, 23 aircraft, and naval assets deployed, violent wind gusts prevented water-scooping planes from descending into the sea, forcing hundreds of residents to evacuate by boat as an escape route of last resort while emergency services stretched to their operational limits. #greece #greecewildfire #kefalonia #attica #athens #breakingnews #topnews #worldnews #usnews #wildfire #evacuation #climate In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews
