Greece - July 02, 2025 A wildfire fanned by gale-force winds on the southern Greek island of Crete has forced the evacuation of locals and tourists, officials said on Thursday. Greece is sweltering in a heatwave that is searing much of southern Europe. The country has become particularly vulnerable in recent years to summer wildfires, which are fuelled by strong winds, drought and high temperatures linked to climate change. Local media said around 1,500 people had to be evacuated because of the blaze, which broke out on Wednesday evening. SHOTLIST Wildfire in Lasithi, Crete on 2 July. [Credit: X/philyftw]
