Two people have died as a result of a severe storm in Montenegro.
Greece is simultaneously seeking help from other countries to control the raging forest fires.
A construction worker in the Montenegrin coastal town of Canj died when a crane collapsed in the strong storm, according to local police.
Another person died when lightning struck a golf course, but the cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
The storm, which has already swept through Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia, has caused severe damage in Montenegro.
Heavy rainfall and hurricane-force winds have felled trees, torn off roof tiles, and caused widespread traffic chaos, according to local media.
The damage is described as "enormous" by Montenegrin authorities.
The storm on the Balkan Peninsula follows a heat wave that recently swept through the region and caused several forest fires.
In Greece, they are fully occupied with keeping the forest fires under control – and for the third year in a row, they are now bringing in firefighting personnel from other countries. On Monday and Tuesday, 36 forest fires broke out across the country.
Around 240 firefighters from Bulgaria, Malta, Moldova, and Romania will, according to Greek authorities, work in the country from early July to September. The group from Bulgaria has already been stationed in Thessaloniki.
