Stove fires kill two on Lesvos but PPC denies culpability
Fears of a new spate of deaths caused by the increased use of wood-fired heaters and braziers amid the latest cold snap peaked on Thursday following the death of two elderly residents of Lesvos this week.
On Wednesday, rescue workers recovered the remains of a 90-year-old woman from her home in the village of Vasilika in central Lesvos after her heater started a fire.
