Fires rage across Europe's south

July 26, 2007

A fire in the Greek region of Aigio has claimed the lives of two people and burned down scores of homes. The blaze has been raging through the Peloponnese mountains for three days. Those evacuated from their homes returned to find nothing left. Firefighters and soldiers are fighting more than 200 blazes scattered across the country. And Greece isn't the only country suffering. Turkety and Croatia are also struggling to cope with fires casued by an extreme heatwave.
