The Hellenic Banking Association expresses its support to the citizens and the business world that are being tested by the incalculable consequences of the fires.

Greek authorities are investigating the causes that led to the devastating fires which destroyed vast swaths of forests on the island of Evia, and according to initial sources, there are indications of foul play pointing to intentional arson.

A great fire broke out early Tuesday afternoon in the Strofilia forest, on the border between Achaia and Ilia, at the height of Kounoupeli, Peloponnese. The fire front is already moving to Falari.
