Greece Evacuates Village as Fire and Heat Sear Mediterranean

Greek authorities ordered the evacuation of an Aegean island village after another wildfire flared.

Firefighters battled to contain dozens of blazes as temperatures climbed to 42C (108F) on parts of the mainland. Residents of Chrousa on the island of Syros were told to evacuate, while another fire was burning in a forest on the island of Evia. Most of Greece will be on high or very high fire alert on Wednesday.
