Two fire fronts in the region of Evros are still raging at the area of Leptokarya and particularly at Meghalo Rema and Kotronia.
The change of the winds direction from northeastern to southern on Wednesday is pushing the blaze to another direction and seems to be uncontrollable.
It is noted that 100 fire engines with a 475-member crew, 16 teams of firefighters on foot assisted by 11 firefighting aircraft and five helicopters are operating in the area. 

A message was sent on Wednesday to the residents of the settlement Yiannouli of Evros to evacuate the area and move towards Soufli due to the wildfire raging in the area. 

Meanwhile, the village Sidiro of Evros is being evacuated. The residents were informed by 112 to move towards Mega Derio.
