Greece is facing its longest heat wave on record as temperatures in the south approach 45 degrees Celsius, or 113 degrees Fahrenheit.

Temperatures reached 40 degrees on Friday in Athens after a week of strong winds fanned devastating wildfires. Authorities have warned the public to stay indoors, and tourist sites like the Acropolis have been closed.
