The Rethymno, Heraklion and Lasithi regions on Crete, as well as Rhodes and Karpathos in the South Aegean region, are forecast to face an extreme wildfire risk.

A very high wildfire risk, or Category 4, has been forecast for several mainland and island areas, including the Ionian Islands, Thesprotia and Preveza, as well as the islands of Lesvos, Chios, Samos and Ikaria, along with the Cyclades, Kalymnos and Kos.

On Crete, the Chania region is also under a Category 4 warning.

The General Secretariat for Civil Protection has notified the relevant state agencies, regions and municipalities in the affected areas so they can remain on heightened alert and be prepared to respond immediately in the event of a wildfire.

Citizens are advised to exercise extreme caution and avoid outdoor activities that could start a fire, including burning dry grass, branches and garden waste, using machinery that produces sparks, such as circular saws and welding equipment, lighting barbecues outdoors, smoking beehives, and discarding lit cigarettes.
