|August 23, 2023
GREEK authorities tackling ferocious wildfires revealed they had discovered 18 bodies believed to be stranded migrants.
The blazes have been sweeping across large swathes of the Evros region of north-eastern Greece, not far from the Turkish border.
The 18 charred corpses were found by firefighters yesterday near a hut outside the village of Avantas, during an inspection of the burnt-out building.
A fire service spokesman said one possibility being investigated was that the victims had entered Greece illegally before tragedy struck.
