Torrential rains have unleashed havoc in Greece, inundating homes and roads, leading to a tragic incident where a man lost his life due to a collapsing wall, as reported by the fire brigade on Tuesday, September 5. Storm Daniel has relentlessly battered western and central Greece since Monday, September 4, prompting a surge in emergency calls to combat flooding. This natural disaster struck just days after Greece managed to bring a deadly wildfire, which had raged for over two weeks, under control in the northern part of the country. Reportedly, in eastern Greece, the relentless downpours claimed at least one life, compounding the nation's woes that have been ongoing for weeks due to devastating wildfires. The regional capital, Volos, bore the brunt of the rainfall with approximately 200 millimetres (eight inches), while the neighbouring village of Zagora was deluged with 516 millimetres of rain, according to the National Meteorological Service (EMY).
