Since Friday morning there have been numerous reports of deadly fires burning all across many areas of Greece. According to msnbc.com:

...more than 170 blazes fires have burned from the western Ionian islands to Ioannina in northwest Greece, and down to the south. New fires broke out Saturday, and fears grew that the death toll could rise as rescue crews reached villages that had been cut off by walls of flames.

The fires have already killed at least 44 people and counting, leaving the country in a state of panic. Many countries have offered their help, including France, Germany, and Spain in order to help put out the deadly blazes. With Greece under a state of emergency, it has been reported that many of the fires have left houses in ruins and villages without working electricity. For the full story, click here.
