Wildfires have broken out across Turkey and Greece, forcing thousands to evacuate as flames sweep through forests and towns. In Turkey, at least 19 villages have been cleared, and multiple provinces, including Bursa, Mersin, and Antalya, are battling fires. Strong winds and record-breaking heat are making firefighting harder. Several lives have been lost, including firefighters in separate incidents. Meanwhile, Greece is also facing severe wildfires amid a heatwave. Fires have been reported in six regions, including Evia, Crete, and Messinia. Italy has sent firefighting planes to assist. Both countries are dealing with rising temperatures, intense winds, and growing concerns over climate change. Emergency crews remain on high alert as the Mediterranean wildfire season intensifies.
