WorldGreece makes progress battling wildfire near Athens

Greek firefighters made progress Tuesday in their efforts to contain a wildfire burning on the outskirts of Athens. The blaze has continued for a fifth day. Weaker winds allowed water-bombing aircraft to return to the operation in force, strengthening the response from the air. Fire crews remain engaged as the fire continues to burn near the capital.
