Halkidiki & Northern Greece fire map
Halkidiki, Thessaloniki, Thassos, Pieria and Kavala. Pine forest runs to the shore on the Halkidiki peninsulas, which is what makes fire there serious.
25 satellite fire detections inside Halkidiki & Northern Greece in the latest NASA FIRMS pass (2026-08-04 to 2026-08-05). A detection is heat seen from orbit; it is not by itself a reported fire, and not every detection becomes one.
