Over 300 firefighters and six aircraft are trying to contain a wildfire currently burning in Greece’s Dadia National Park, Greece’s biggest Natura 2000 site, known for its black vulture colony. Greece, along with many other countries in Europe, has been experiencing a prolonged heatwave with many parts of the country currently under fire alert. 

This Copernicus Sentinel-2 image was captured on 24 July and shows the fire burning on the east part of the park. 

Hundreds of residents and tourists have been evacuated from the Greek island of Lesbos after a wildfire broke out on the morning of 23 July. This image, captured by Sentinel-2, shows the active fire front which stretches for more than four km.
