More than 110 dogs rescued from wildfires in Greece’s Attica region are being sheltered at the Megara Olympians Municipal Stadium, where volunteers and veterinarians are providing food, water and medical checks. The fires, fueled by dry conditions and strong winds, have destroyed homes and damaged wildlife habitats, while new figures indicate that Attica has lost 42% of its forests to wildfires over the past decade. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said some forests could recover naturally, and authorities reported 33 fire-related detentions, including cases linked to negligent agricultural work. Firefighters and aerial units continue efforts to contain the blazes.
