TRAGIC/ These are the pilots who lost their lives while trying to put out the
34-year-old Christos Moulas and 27-year-old lieutenant Periklis Stefanidis

The two pilots who were on the Canadair plane that crashed in Greece have died.
The squadron's captain, 34-year-old Christos Moulas and 27-year-old lieutenant Periklis Stefanidis, breathed their last in the line of duty.  

Stefanidis and Moulas, operators of the 355th Tactical Transport Squadron of the 112th Fighter Wing took off just before 12:00 noon in the CL-215 from Aghialos Airport bound for Karystos.

THE EVENT
A firefighting plane has crashed in the south of Greece during operations to extinguish the flames that have been burning the neighboring country for days.

The plane crash happened on the island of Evia and was filmed live during a broadcast on Greek national television.

The "Canadair" airplane had two pilots on board when it lost control while flying at low altitude, and they lost their lives tragically. The causes of the incident are not yet known.

Fires in Greece
The hottest point of the fire emergency in Greece continues to be the island of Rhodes, where what has been described as the biggest rescue operation is taking place. Firefighters are trying to extinguish a massive fire in the village of Vati in the south of the island.

So airlines are sending empty planes to the island to repatriate evacuated tourists, most of whom are British. Hundreds of them have returned home, where amid tears and hugs with their relatives, they have told about the horror they experienced.

At least 10,000 citizens of the United Kingdom, it is estimated, were spending their holidays in Rhodes, when the fire got out of control and forced the evacuation of about 19,000 people.
Locals and tourists were forced to evacuate their homes and hotels, sleeping outside as the flames quickly spread to the island's east coast. Citizens describe the event as a catastrophe of biblical proportions and call for help.

"I am from Rhodes. We are trying to help in any way possible but it is very difficult. The winds are very strong today, and will be worse on Wednesday. We need help, please send us help," said a resident.

Evacuation orders have also been issued in Corfu. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, who convened the cabinet on Tuesday, warned of a difficult summer, and said there is no magic protection against wildfires.

According to him, things will get worse as temperatures and wind power increase. Mitsotakis called the evacuation operation in Rhodes a success, and praised the fact that there were no casualties.
