Beginning around the Dadia forest in Evros in August 2023, this fire burned for weeks and became one of the largest measured from orbit in Europe. Sitting just west of the Turkish border, it is also valuable for showing how a fire advances in the same climate and fuel type.

Yunanistan · 10158 satellite detections · 15.0 days · peak fire radiative power 4612 MW. The record was prepared from NASA FIRMS archive (SP) data; the satellite sees heat and sections under cloud may be missing.
