Forest fires in Olympia

[Garnet]

I clicked on this purely by accident. Apparently large areas of Greece are affected by forest fires at the moment and it is only the work of fire fighters that has kept some sites of ancient historical note safe-including the area of ancient Olympia-the birthplace of the Olympic Games!
There have also been 56 deaths caused by these fires, many of which are believed to have been started deliberately.
