The fire is located in a forest area in the Nea Makri, Attica area in the direction of Dionysos Avenue. According to the first information from the fire department, there is no danger for a residential area.
As explained by the mayor of Marathon, Stergios Tsirkas, to SKAI 100.3, the fire started from a car on Dionysos Avenue and then spread to the forest due to the strong winds blowing in the area. He added that the front from the Dionysos avenue side to Nea Makri has been overhauled, however the front to the north is furious as the area is inaccessible.
31 firefighters were immediately mobilized with 2 groups of pedestrians, 8 vehicles, 2 airplanes and 2 helicopters.
Volunteer firefighters and local water transport authorities also assist in the work of the fire department.
