A large fire broke has broken out on the Greek island of Evia near Athens, the government said, with two villages evacuated, less than a month after more than 90 people died in Greece’s worst-ever wildfire.

Around 250 firefighters with 62 fire engines supported by troops were operating in the area, about 92km (57 miles) north of Athens, officials said.
