Greece struggled to contain a wildfire west of Athens that burnt forestland for a fifth day on Friday as another heatwave hit the country.

"We are having a very difficult three-day spell, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with extreme weather conditions and very high temperatures followed by strong winds," the minister said, adding that after a short respite, another heatwave was forecast from the middle of next week.

Makes sense. Greece fires are hard to put out. Have they tried baking soda?

Can't you go back to reddit with your stupid jokes on behalf of other people's very real miseries? Do people like you don't have any sense of decency?

"Bael422 lost his arm in a tragic car accident"

Huehuehue. Guess someone went out on a limb there.

Would you think that you'd find that funny, then? No? Then stop that stupid childish bullshit. Kindly.

Keep doing your thing everybody... Don't worry, electric cars are going to save us
