Local forces call in more help after sighting is made amid fears over 'unbearable' 35°C heatA search-and-rescue operation hunting for Dr Michael Mosley on the Greek island of Symi is being intensified as it enters its third day
A statement from local police on the island, about 25 miles north of Rhodes, said officers were informed about the “disappearance of the 67-year-old British national” on Wednesday. The rescue operation will now be focusing on the Pedi area of the island, after a woman reported seeing him there on Wednesday. But Mayor of Symi Eleftherios Papakalodoukas said firefighters had told him they believed it was “impossible” Mosley was still there.
She said: “It’s a quiet place … if you see the map of the area it’s a clear path, it’s nothing dangerous, many people go every day, every few minutes, that’s the reason it’s very strange because it’s a clear path.”
