Saudi Arabia ready to help Greece battle fires: Foreign minister

RIYADH, 12 August 2021, (TON): Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan on Thursday stressed his country’s solidarity with Greece following blazes that destroyed homes and forced thousands of people to evacuate.

Hundreds of firefighters from across Europe and the Middle East are working alongside Greek colleague to contain flare-ups of the huge wildfires that have ravaged Greece’s forests for a week.

Prince Faisal bin Farhan said “the Kingdom was ready to provide the necessary support, during a phone call to his Greek counterpart Nikos Dendias.”
