Massive wildfires have left a trail of destruction and severe damage to nature, infrastructure and villages in the region of Evia in Greece.
Footage from the island filmed on Thursday shows completely burnt out residential houses and vehicles, damaged churches and graveyards, scorched earth and bare trees in the forests.
The blazes have also destroyed local infrastructure including roads and power networks as falling trees pulled down electricity pylons.
After eight consecutive days of fighting the flames, firefighters and volunteers have brought the fires under control and were able to extinguish most of those burning on Evia.
More than 2,000 people have been evacuated from the island, as the country has been battling devastating wildfires for nearly two weeks due to hot weather and long-lasting drought.
