Firefighters battle massive wildfires in Belgium and Greece as 2 die on an island near Athens
📍 The outcome
The Belgian wildfire, which had been inching toward the German border, halted its advance as rain helped contain the blaze and additional assistance arrived, including a visit from the Belgian king. Meanwhile, the fire destroyed a local festival, and the situation remained under control without further northward spread.
The coverage ended with the fire no longer advancing toward Germany.
