Ecological catastrophe in Volos, thousands of dead fish

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, AUG 29 - Greek authorities have begun collecting hundreds of thousands of dead fish that washed up in a tourist port in Volos (central Greece) this week after being displaced from their natural freshwater habitat by last year's Thessalian floods. The dead fish have left a silvery blanket over the port and a stench that has alarmed residents and authorities, who have rushed to collect them before the odour spreads to nearby restaurants and hotels.
