1993 wildfire in Greece

On the afternoon of July 30, 1993 at 2:30 PM, a large forest fire broke out on the Greek island of Ikaria, originating as two fires that quickly merged north of the town of Agios Kirykos. Due to strong winds and inadequate firefighting equipment the fire quickly spread out of control. Many people abandoned their homes in the surrounding areas to escape and fled to the city, but several remained to try to save them.
