Heatwave Tragedies: Dutch Tourist Found Dead on Greek Island, Others Missing

 

In the scorching heat of a relentless early-summer heatwave, tragedy has struck the idyllic Greek islands. Dr. Michael Mosley’s death made headlines in the UK, but he is not alone. At least four other visitors have lost their lives recently. The heatwave, which meteorologists predict will “go down in history,” has prompted warnings for people to stay indoors between 11 am and 3 pm.

The Acropolis in Athens closed, schools and nurseries shut, and temperatures soared to a blistering 43°C in some places. Greece faces its longest recorded heatwave, lasting 16 days. Experts fear this could be a grim sign of summers to come, with the country on the frontline of global warming.

Tourists have fallen victim to the extreme conditions. On the island of Symi, Dr. Mosley was found dead after a hike in scorching heat. Meanwhile, an American tourist’s body was discovered on the small Greek island of Mathraki. And on Samos, a 74-year-old Dutch tourist vanished while hiking. His body was later found in a gorge.

Let us remember these lives lost and heed the warnings as temperatures continue to rise
