It was on 23 July when the flames destroyed everything in their passage leaving 102 dead behind and hundreds of burnt houses.
At about ten o’clock in the morning, the memorial service of the victims was completed in Kokkino Limanaki, a few meters away from a field where 26 dead were found.
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, was present to honour the memory of the victims.
