Citizens’ Protection Minister Nikos Toskas on Tuesday issued a plea to the public to be particularly careful of engaging in any activities that could spark a forest or brush fire.

Speaking on the ANA-MPA news agency’s radio station, Toskas warned that while temperatures will be dropping slightly this week after a weekend heatwave, winds will be picking up across the country, increasing the risk of fires.

The minister cited the example of Cyprus, where a huge wildfire believed to have been sparked by a boy playing with a lighter has razed dozens of hectares of forestland and led to the death of two firemen.
