Just two days after freak storms led to seven deaths in Halkidiki, northern Greece, a fire was reported to have broken out on agricultural land between the settlements of Nikiti and Neos Marmaras.

A firefighting contingent of 20 men and 10 engines was dispatched to tackle the blaze which broke out on a farm covering around a hectare of land. 

An 86-year-old man was killed on Tuesday in a car accident near the town of Nikiti in Halkidiki, northern Greece. According to police, the man died when the car he was traveling hit another vehicle.
