Corfu the latest Greek island to evacuate over wildfires
Corfu has become the latest Greek island to issue an evacuation order, as the country grapples with wildfires. Photos uploaded to social media show flames engulfing Corfu. A fire broke out on the northern part of the island which is popular with British tourists.
It is the second island to evacuate due to rampant wildfires after around 19,000 people had to leave Rhodes. Many were forced to flee their hotels as the flames continued to spread from the centre of the Greek island.
