A fire is breaking out in a forest area at the end of Kleisoura Street in Byron.

Initially, 40 firefighters, 12 vehicles and two groups of pedestrians were mobilized at the scene, while METPE and volunteer firefighters are also helping to extinguish the fire, while two helicopters operate from the air.
