Apocalyptic fires in Greece left at least 80 people dead, panicked people begging in their homes, cottages and suites where they were fired. Some people managed to escape by cars, motorcycles or dirt, jumping literally into the sea in front of a fire powered by oranges and spreading incredibly fast and throwing everything in front of him.
Many, unfortunately, have not managed to escape. As we already know, 26 men, women and children lived in the Mati station, just thirty meters from the sea to protect them. Their bodies were found in their last embrace
"New York Times" details unknown of this invisible tragedy in an idyllic Mediterranean shipyard, which is transmitted by "Indeks.hr". The group in which several families were desperately trying to find the door in the railing behind which were the steep stairs leading to the beach.
Although the gated entrance is only a dozen meters from where their bodies were found,
At dusk, when a New York Times correspondent came to Mati, the burned field where these people had fallen and were waiting for their land found only overshoes and cell phones, webbing loops, several rackets with a horn, a large leather sandal and a little blue to the brim. In the field, among the bare trees, there were still several bodies of dogs, but the body of the rescuers had taken over for a long time. For them, the rubber gloves used are still on the ground.
A sharp scent, smoke and completely swept garbage piles now give this flyway an apocalyptic atmosphere. The streets are black with fire, and the spider pipes burned the remains of the car. Elena Apostolov, a pet owner, walked around a white box and told the "New York Times" reporter that she had "found nothing".
Dana Koliou (23) apologized for having, by banning corpses, a mobile phone with 48
– We smelled the smell of smoke, but only l & # 39; ;odour. And then, two hours later, the fire was there – says Antonis Ciongios (60) who had apartments in Matija
It was already too late to beg. The only street that leaked from the scene was completely blocked by cars that were soon caught by the fire. "The only way was the sea"
– The only way to be the sea – Ciongios a fenced road to the shore through which hundreds of people managed to escape the last moment. He was among them and in the shallow area he waited until the fire was extinguished. But his friend's mother is among the missing, he says.
Some did not go to sea, but swam to the creek, where the fishermen were torn off or kept rafts improvised until the coastguard saved them. The Coast Guard, fishermen and other boat owners saved and helped evacuate 800 people from Matija Beach and Kokino Limanakija. But at least six people drowned in the sea
Vaios Kiriakis (50), professor of physics in high school, among the hiking trails that managed to get out of the way before the fire reached it. He says that he first smoked smoke Monday afternoon. He wasted no time, but with his wife and twelve-year-old son, he took raincoats and fled to the beach next to the harbor. From there, they saw smoke rising over burning houses, trees and cars. At three o'clock the fire was finally gone. When they returned, they saw that the fire was 100 feet from their house
Some houses were turned into a boiler, others intact
A glass that changed constantly and dispersed the almost intact flame, while others burned to the ground, seemingly quite at random
In probably the worst fire that Greece hit in recent history, besides the 80 dead, 187 were hospitalized, including 20 children. “/>
Thousands of tourists, local residents and retired people were evacuated from this station 30 kilometers to the 39th. is from Athens. Although the fire was extinguished here, the one around Kinete, 50 miles west of Athens, is still active. Rescuers are now looking for cars and homes destroyed, and some fear that the total number of deaths will reach 300.
– All is bad We have dead people, we have people looking for friends and family – says George Rumeliotis, president of the local civil protection, while ordering the subordinates to blow up food for the survivors
For those which have remained without anything that we seem to have irreversibly changed by its influence on the climate.
