No active fire front in Anavissos, Lesvos and Xanthi

Where there is a traffic disruption

Newsroom June 10 05:44

 

With no active front are the fires that broke out earlier on Tuesday (10/6) in Anabyssos, Lesvos, and Xanthi.

Specifically, the fire in Anavissos was burning near houses and even sent a message from 112 to those in Anavissos and Palea Fokida to move away towards Athens. To extinguish the fire, 45 firefighters with 13 vehicles, 1 hiking team of the 1st EMODE, 4 aircraft, and 2 helicopters rushed to the scene. Water trucks of local authorities also assisted.

Vehicle traffic is blocked on Lavrion Avenue from the height of its confluence with an anonymous road just before “Ktima Hatzis” in the area of the settlement of Sinterina, in the direction of Anavyssos.
