CORFU. Fires are continuing to break out in rubbish piles in Corfu despite warnings from the Medical Association and Technical Chamber of the dioxin toxicity produced by burning.

As in most cases, the fires broke out at night in huge piles of waste. Early on Thursday morning the Fire Service was called out to fires in Roda and Ag. Ioanni.

The fire in Roda was close to a house and spread to its roof. Firefighters, who responded to the call immediately, were able to prevent it from spreading elsewhere.

The video below by Spyros Priftis shows the fire in Roda.
