SYRIZA: Request for Information Regarding Aerial Means Used in the Attica Fire
SYRIZA has submitted an official request for information regarding the aerial means that were flying yesterday during the devastating fire in Attica.
“The Chief of the Fire Brigade stated, among other things, that a total of 32 firefighting aircraft have been operating since the start of the fire. However, both from media reports and from residents’ testimonies, the reported number of operating aerial means is being disputed,” said the president of SYRIZA in his post.
Επειδή κατά την επίσκεψή μου στο Συντονιστικό της Πολιτικής Προστασίας είδα ο ίδιος στο σύστημα μόνο τρία αεροσκάφη να επιχειρούν στην ευρύτερη περιοχή της Αττικής, ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, μέσω του Τομεάρχη μας Συμεών Κεδίκογλου, προχώρησε στο παρακάτω επίσημο αίτημα.

Stefanos Kasselakis’ post
“During my visit to the Civil Protection Coordination Center, I personally saw only three aircraft operating in the wider Attica area. Therefore, SYRIZA, through our Shadow Minister Symeon Kedikoglou, has made the following official request. The Greek people have the right to know the truth.”
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
To: Minister of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection, Mr. V. Kikilias
Dear Minister,
Following our visit on August 12, 2024, to the Operations Center of the Ministry, where we were briefed on the devastating fires affecting Attica, the Chief of the Fire Brigade mentioned, among other things, that a total of 32 firefighting aircraft have been operating since the fire started.
However, both from media reports and residents’ testimonies, the reported number of operating aerial means is being disputed.
To ensure full transparency for the Greek people, who deserve to know the truth, I, as the responsible Shadow Minister of SYRIZA-PS, on behalf of President St. Kasselakis, am forwarding the request from the Main Opposition, to be provided with the material from the relevant recording system, as well as the file with the related flight permits, from the start of the fire in Attica until 9:30 PM, when aerial operations ceased due to darkness.
We intend to request the information through parliamentary channels as well, but since this is a more time-consuming process, we are asking for immediate answers that the public has a right to know.
Thank you, and I look forward to your response.
Symeon Kedikoglou
Member of Parliament for Evia
Shadow Minister for Climate Crisis and Civil Protection of SYRIZA-PS
