As the heatwaves affecting Europe continue to worsen, the spread of resulting wildfires on the Greek island of Rhodes had prompted the largest-scale evacuation in the nation’s history. Thousands of tourists have been forced to flee their hotels to escape the blazes, which are also affecting the neighboring islands of Corfu and Evia. Approximately 19,000 people have been evacuated from Rhodes since Saturday from figures supplied by the Greek government. Multiple airlines have canceled flights to Rhodes in the wake of the wildfire spread as more focus is placed on evacuating displaced tourists still on the island.
