as posted by the channel

A massive wildfire on the Greek island of Crete prompted the evacuation of more than 1,000 people as flames tore through forests. Fueled by strong winds, the fire reached homes and hotels, with some property damage reported but no injuries. Evacuees, including both residents and tourists, were taken to a local stadium in Ierapetra or left the island by boat.
