For the fire, which has broken out in the area Pitsinades of Kythera spoke to ERT3 the mayor of Kythera, Eustratios Charhalakis.
«The situation is difficult. I can't tell you too much. The weather conditions are very bad, which means they are conducive to spreading.
There is a very, very large mobilization of ground forces and air forces, but the air forces, as you know, are operating and they have to go in for refueling. You can't have the airborne for 10 hours over a fire.
So there is a great mobilization now with the ship in an hour and a half come several fire trucks with personnel from the Peloponnese and in the evening from Gythio of Laconia will come and work machines of the Army Land. Settlements are threatened, evacuations have been made, »said Efstratios Harhalakis.
