State of emergency due to wildfires. Death toll 63

The unprecedented conflagration that has engulfed much of the historic Peloponnese peninsula - home to ancient Olympia and ancient Sparta, among others -- as well as other provinces around the country was fanned since Thursday by gale-force winds, heat and widespread suspicions of arson.

Aleka Papariga General Secretary of the CC of KKE on Saturday called on citizens to contribute in the combating of the wildfires sweeping the country.

Al. Papariga, who visited Zaharo in the western Peloponnese, said that "at this moment words are futile," the grief is self-evident."

She called on KKE members and supporters "to be completely at the disposal to the service of the local authorities, agencies and officials, to support the inhabitants and contribute to any problems they can."
