Fires that have claimed 20 lives in Greece are still burning out of control in foothills near Athens and the Evros region near the border with Turkey.
Eighteen of those killed are thought to be refugees and migrants who crossed the border recently, hiding in forests north of the city of Alexandroupolis, SIA reports with reference to foreign media.
Greece has expressed its deepest sorrow for the deaths in the Dadia forest close to the Turkish border.
For five days, fires have burned near the city and west along the coast.
Firefighters are also trying to stop a fire spreading from the slopes of Mount Parnitha, to the north-west of Athens.
Their efforts are being hindered by strong winds whipping up the flames and searing heat of up to 40C.
The victims were found on Tuesday by the fire service near a shack outside the village of Avantas, to the north of Alexandroupolis.
