Europe is reeling from catastrophic wildfires, with Crete bearing the brunt as thousands flee amid violent 125-kph winds that are fanning flames and grounding firefighting aircraft. In Rethymno alone, 8,000 people were evacuated overnight, including tourists during peak season, while two firefighters died in Krya Vrysi and another near Gytheio. Greece faces worsening conditions as fires destroy homes and farmland, with officials calling Wednesday a “dark day.” The crisis is spreading across the continent — Spain’s largest wildfire ever recorded rages in Ávila, Portugal reports injuries, Turkey’s blazes are mostly contained, and France grapples with its worst fire since 1949. These extreme events underscore the escalating global threat of climate change.
