Wildfire at Dervenohoria rages uncontrollably, says fire brigade

The blaze initially seemed to be getting under control earlier in the day but winds in the evening rekindled the flames and started new fires in inaccessible ravines where it’s impossible to send crews or vehicles, fire brigade officials said, noting that so far no villages are in danger.
Aerial firefighting has stopped for the night and will resume operations in the morning.
The fire brigade also said the blaze has formed a perimeter of several thousand kilometers and is moving towards three separate directions: the villages of Panaktos, Prasino and Lefka, a second one south of Stefani and a third towards the TITAN cement factory and the Frangos quarries
There is no estimate so far for the size of the damage, which will be assessed after the fire is extinguished, but the first rough calculations estimate that several thousand acres of pine forest have been burned.
