Watch: Greece wildfires seen from International Space Station
The smoke from wildfires currently littering multiple Greek Islands was filmed from the International Space Station.
The fires have forced tens of thousands of holidaymakers to evacuate the tourist hotspot islands of Rhodes and Corfu.
The evacuation order came after Jet2 and Tui cancelled all flights to Rhodes until Friday 28 July.
Wildfires in the Mediterranean are becoming ‘larger, faster and harder to stop’ due to climate change, according to Prof Guillermo Rein, professor of fire science at Imperial College London.
