Wildfires burning across Attica and Boeotia for a third consecutive night have scorched roughly 111,000 stremmata (about 27,400 acres), Greek weather service Meteo said, as authorities issued fresh evacuation orders and firefighters battled flames encircling homes near the villages of Agios Nektarios and Kryo Pigadi.

A man was swept away by a swollen stream and killed in the Athens suburb of Nea Makri overnight as Storm Erminio lashed Attica with torrential rain, fierce winds and thunderstorms, causing widespread flooding and traffic chaos across the region.
