TL;DR Summary

More than 600 firefighters, supported by water-dropping aircraft, are struggling to control three major wildfires in Greece, including one that has been burning for nine days and is responsible for most of the 21 wildfire-related deaths in the past week. The fires have scorched vast areas of land, destroyed homes, and prompted evacuations. Greece has sought assistance from other European countries, and officials suspect arson or negligence as the cause of some smaller blazes. Climate change is believed to be a contributing factor to the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires in Europe.
