Greece is facing a very high risk of wildfires across multiple regions from late June into early July 2025. Authorities have issued warnings for elevated fire danger in Attica, Crete, Evia, the Peloponnese, Kythera, Laconia, the Cyclades, and the North Aegean. The risk level has been categorized as very high, or category 4, prompting increased vigilance and restrictions such as forest traffic bans and drone surveillance. Weather conditions contributing to the heightened fire risk include a combination of extreme heat, with temperatures reaching up to 38 degrees Celsius, and strong winds. Fire fronts reported earlier have been brought under control, but the ongoing weather pattern continues to pose a threat. Officials remain on alert as the forecast predicts sustained high temperatures and gusty winds, creating a dangerous environment for potential wildfires in these regions.
