ATHENS: Officials on the Greek island of Rhodes said Saturday they had moved 30,000 people threatened by wildfires to safety, including 2,000 who had to be ferried off beaches.
Three passenger ferries have been moored at the port of Rhodes to accommodate those rescued, Athens News Agency reported. Local video footage showed some of them pushing strollers carrying small children under the scorching sun. Five helicopters and 200 firefighters fought the blaze during the daytime, but the air support was called off as the light failed.
