A wildfire raging near the northeastern Greek region of Evros is unlikely to be brought under control, deputy governor Dimitris Petrovich told national broadcaster ERT on Sunday.
The European Commission said the blaze, which threatens Greece’s Dadia national park, is the largest single fire in the history of the EU.
Conditions for firefighters remained difficult as of Sunday morning, Petrovich told ERT.
Meanwhile, Greek civil defense authorities said that the overall risk of forest fires has decreased compared to last week.
A major blaze was also raging on the northwestern outskirts of Athens, burning into the Mount Parnitha national park.
European Union officials have pointed to climate change as the cause of the increased frequency and intensity of wildfires in southern Europe.
