Footage from onboard a Turkish aircraft shows the sheer devastation in Greece as the plane flies through thick black smoke to tackle the wildfires.
The land below is in darkness, apart from the orange glow of the fires, which can be seen for miles.
Satellite images have also revealed the extent of devastation caused by the wildfire which has charred the central part of the island, burning down homes, cars and livestock.
An average of 50 new wildfires have broken out daily for the past 12 days in Greece, according to government spokesperson Pavlos Marinakis. Over the weekend 64 new blazes were recorded.
