A large fire has broken out at the Tebloni landfill, in the northern part of Corfu island on Friday.
The fire started late on Friday and extends over the entire landfill, with strong winds hampering firefighting. 
Besides the Fire Brigade and water trucks, water-dropping helicopters are also assisting.
A fire had broken out in the same landfill a few days ago.
