Five foreigners have been remanded on charges of arson, one of them with intent for a fire in Evros.

The fire is still raging in the area of Lavara Soufliou without, however, the front inspiring any concern for the Fire Department. Ground and air forces have rushed to the area.

24 firefighters, 11 vehicles, and two helicopters are working on the fire burning in a grassy area.
