CORFU. In the last 24 hours fires have broken out in refuse bins in several areas.

The Fire Service can hardly keep up with the calls out to fires in refuse bins.

Since June 1, the Fire Service has had to deal with fires in Roda, Karteria, Alepou, Benitses, Petriti, Potamos and Lefkimmi. On Sunday morning they had to put out a fire in Vrioni-Chrysida outside a large supermarket.

The fires are, in general, not difficult for firefighters to extinguish but the pollution from the toxic gases released into the atmosphere is incalculable.
