Inferno devastates villages in Limassol

In the searing summer heat firefighters throughout Thursday continued to battle the blaze that incinerated an estimated 120 square kilometres in the Limassol district, with two people confirmed dead and at least two injured, as residents of more than a dozen communities had to flee their homes.

The two who died, an elderly couple, were found in a burnt-out car on the road between the villages of Monagri and Alassa
