CORFU. Fire broke out at around 16:00 in Old Perithia by Mt. Pantokrator.

As soon as the fire was spotted by the planes on patrol firefighters rushed to the scene and the two PZL planes started dropping water.

By about 17:00 the one front was brought under control but the other continued. Efforts are being made to bring the second front under control in the time that the firefighting planes can continue flying.
