At least six people have died and more than six others are still missing.
ATHENS: At least six people have died and more than six were still missing on Thursday after storm Daniel swept across central Greece, triggering landslides, destroying roads and bridges and carrying away dozens of cars.
“Our country is facing for the third day a phenomenon unlike any other we have seen in the past,” Marinakis said, before announcing that the recently re-elected leader’s main economic policy speech would be held in the middle of next week instead of Saturday. Civil protection minister Vassilis Kikilias said during a press briefing on Thursday that six people had been reported missing in the area of Karditsa.
Since Tuesday, 820 people have been evacuated across the country, 750 of them in the Thessaly region.
