Rain floods Greece, schools close in Attica region

Heavy rains have hit Greece. In Poseidonos, a passenger bus remained stranded and began sinking underwater yesterday.
One photo shows passengers holding hands with each other, trying to evacuate from water that reaches knee level.

The fire department called on citizens to be careful and follow the instructions of the authorities.

The situation seems critical even in Attica, where some houses have been flooded and schools closed.

In other areas such as Kifissos and Paraliaki, the traffic was stopped, while there were power outages in other areas such as Elefsina, in the center of Athens, Kallithea, Koropi and Renti area.
