As Evia wildfire abates, eco damage emerges
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
A major ecological catastrophe was visible on the mountainous and semi-mountainous surface of north-central Evia island on Wednesday morning in the wake of almost two days of a burning wildfire in a pine-covered region.
The wildfire appeared mostly contained on Wednesday morning, although at least two fronts were still active in what was once a burning blaze extending almost 15 kilometers. A handful of villages were evacuated over the past 36 hours.
