In a special address on television, Greek Prime Minister Kirka Micotakis has apologized to the public for mistakes made in the fight against the fires that have been ravaging Greek land for more than a week.
The Prime Minister emphasized that any wrongdoing would be assessed, but now the most important thing is to endure and face all the unprecedented misfortune.
For many days, hundreds of firefighters have been battling the flames that have plagued the island of Evia the most recently and are still not suffocating elsewhere in Greece. Thousands of people have been forced to flee their homes, and dozens of farms have been burned, devastating acres of forest.
In a televised address, the Prime Minister blamed climate change, which has brought unprecedented high temperatures. But Greek society accuses the authorities of being late in failing, for example, to deliver planes capable of extinguishing fires from the air in good time.
