Evacuation from Greece is not possible, roads are closed, everyone calls for patience

The evacuation of tourists from Greece is currently not possible because the highways are closed, Serbian Ambassador to Greece Duan Spasojevi confirmed for B92.net.
As he stated, storms are slowly abating, however, it is still not possible for Serbian tourists to return or evacuate, because the roads are closed.
"Most of the roads are closed, as the water has overflowed and the torrent has washed away part of the roads and bridges. The national highway, which leads from Athens to Thessaloniki, is closed in two places and it is definitely not safe to drive on it. Moreover, many alternative roads are closed, which lead to the north. The only road that is open for now and you can go from Athens to Serbia is the Ionian highway, however, since the storm is moving from east to west, the question is whether it will also be closed," he says. Spasojevi also emphasizes that the Serbian embassy is in constant contact with the police and that tourists are informed in a timely manner about all new situations.
He also stated that he spoke with the director of the police and that the advice to all tourists is to stay in their current locations, if they are safe. "Evacuation is only carried out if someone's life is in danger. We are in non-stop contact with all our tourists, of whom there are about 110 in the Volos region alone, who came organized through two agencies. There was often no electricity and water in that area, but we are in constant contact with them. They are safe, no one is injured, which is the most important thing," says the ambassador and appeals to all Serbian tourists to remain patient and wait for the situation to calm down and then head back to Serbia.
"Many are asking us for help or evacuation, we will do everything in our power,...
