A wildfire on the outskirts of Thessaloniki prompted partial evacuations on Saturday, while a separate house fire in the central Greek city of Volos claimed the life of a 65-year-old man, according to Greek daily Kathimerini. The wildfire broke out on Saturday afternoon in an area of low vegetation in the suburb of Pylaia, east of Thessaloniki.

A 65-year-old man was found dead after a fire destroyed a single-family home in the central Greek city of Volos early Sunday.

A fire on low growth near the Thessaloniki suburb of Pylaia has led authorities to call for a partial evacuation of the area.
