    » Greek forest fires reward offered

    Published 2007-08-27
    A 1m euro (£678,000) reward has been offered to help catch the arsonists suspected of being behind Greek forest fires which have killed at least 60.
    New fires continue to break out, with firefighters contending with 63 fresh blazes on Sunday in what officials called an "unprecedented disaster".
    The authorities have already arrested several people over the fires.
    Ancient Olympia, birthplace of the Olympics, was also threatened but firefighters kept the site safe.
    Nikos Diamandis, a Greek fire department spokesman, told the Associated Press news agency: "Fires are burning in more than half the country. This is definitely an unprecedented disaster for Greece."
    The reward, put up by the Greek government, is for anyone providing information which leads to the arrest of an arsonist.
