Greek and foreign firefighters and volunteers, along with land and air assistance, battled for a sixth day to contain and put out the large fire in the natural habitat of the Dadia Forest, in NE Greece, on Thursday, ANA reports.
The forest has suffered extensive damage and it is feared that members of the Black Vulture (Aegypius monachus) that live in the forest along with another 35 species of birds of prey will be greatly affected. The smoke that has covered the area has made assessment of the damage impossible.
