Greece: SET Forst fires, August 2023
Due to the devastating forest fires in several parts of Greece and resulting needs for international response the Greek authorities accepted the offer for assistance submitted by Switzerland. Based on the agreement between SDC/H and the Swiss Armed Forces (ADRIANA) a joint deployment (SDC/Swiss Armed Forces) with two Superpuma helicopters (Swiss Air Force) and respective staff members is planned to support the Greek responders to limit damage of nature and infrastructure by dropping water on the burning areas and in particular to protect and support the affected population. A similar deployment took place in August 2021.
