Severe storms continued to wreak havoc across Greece on Tuesday, April 1, with Crete bearing the brunt of the heaviest rainfall.
On Paros and Mykonos, authorities worked to clear debris and overturned vehicles after hailstorms and torrential rain.
On Monday, March 31, Paros experienced flooding that submerged cars and homes, prompting authorities to request emergency government aid for road and infrastructure repairs.
Crete’s rescue teams assisted seven people trapped in vehicles by floodwaters, while rockslides and road closures were reported.
Rhodes also faced gale-force winds, causing tree falls and vehicle damage, while schools closed and ferry services were disrupted across several islands, particularly in the Cyclades.
The storms hit just weeks after an earthquake swarm displaced thousands from nearby islands.
