The fire service have called with an update, and spokesperson Lt Col Yannis Artopios tells me there are new fires raging on the island of Rhodes.
He says two rivers have dried up near Gennadi and Vati, in southern Rhodes. He said currently the fire isn’t threatening any nearby residents.
But he also says they had to evacuate people from Platanistos at midnight. The fire service are not certain of how many people were evacuated, but said it would be in the hundreds, not thousands.
Corfu and Evia have had strong winds across the day, so he says “it is not totally under control”.
He adds, “we continue to hunt fires everyday“.
