Shocking Video Shows Residents Fleeing Burning Greek Island by Ferry
Over the weekend, residents of the Greek island of Evia had to evacuate as wildfires raged uncontrolled.
A distressing video depicts residents being evacuated by a ferry as the fire turns the sky orange with flames.
While much of Greece has experienced the worst heatwave in three decades, wildfires have been fanned by a lack of precipitation and extreme dryness over the past week.
