Maps, satellite images and before and after pictures show the extent of wildfires across Greece.
Tens of thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes and abandon holidays on Greek islands including Rhodes and Corfu as fires spread across the region.
In Rhodes a black scar has been scorched across the middle of the island to the southern town of Kiotari.Your device may not support this visualisationThe fires have been burning since last week on Rhodes, where temperatures have reached 45C. More than 30,000 people have fled the flames on the island since the weekend, Greece's largest-ever wildfire evacuation.Some 16,000 people have been transported across land and another 3,000 evacuated by sea, police say. Others have had to leave by road or use their own transport.
They include thousands of tourists who had to make for temporary shelters like sports stadiums before getting the emergency planes laid on by travel companies.But with Greece in the middle of a long spell of extreme heat that has increased the risk of wildfires across the country, Rhodes is not the only place that has been affected.
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis says the country is "at war" with the wildfires and warns it faces "another three difficult days ahead" before temperatures are expected to drop.
