Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis again chaired a meeting at the Thessaly Region Coordination Centre for Operations on Thursday, in which he participated via video call, and was briefed on the operations underway for the relief of flood-stricken areas. The prime minister then gave instructions for further action, saying that particular weight must be given to public health issues, pumping floodwater and removal of animal carcasses.
The collection of dead animals was making rapid progress, especially after the Armed Forces were called in to assist the effort.
