CORFU. Two active fire fronts - in Old Perithia and Ai Giorgis towards Kassiopi.
Old Perithia - The fire was brought under control (19:50). The firebreak created there with much effort does not allow the fire to go to the buildings, but the damage is extensive. Most of the vegetation in the area has been burnt.
Ai Giorgis - The fire continues to rage. Access to the area is difficult and only from one side. Firefighters and volunteers are attempting to protect their properties and prevent the fire from reaching the buildings.
