Meanwhile, in Greece, wildfires forced thousands of tourists to evacuate, leaving many stranded without proper accommodations. Despite the challenges, locals and tour operators have stepped up to help.

Remembering George Allegaya and Trevor Francis, Two Iconic Figures Lost This Week: Two iconic figures, George Allegaya from media and Trevor Francis from sports, passed away this week. Allegaya was a beloved BBC newsreader, while Francis was Nottingham Forest's greatest ever player. Twitter replaced its logo with an 'X' as part of Elon Musk's plans, and cinemas had a successful weekend with Barbie and Oppenheimer.
We lost two remarkable figures from the world of media and sports this week. George Allegaya, a beloved BBC newsreader, passed away at the age of 67 after a battle with bowel cancer. Known for his kindness, empathy, and excellent journalism skills, Allegaya left a lasting impact on audiences. Meanwhile, Trevor Francis, the first million-pound football player and Nottingham Forest legend, died at 69. Francis was remembered as the Blues' greatest ever player, known for his natural goal-scoring ability and skill. Elsewhere, Twitter replaced its logo with an 'X' as part of Elon Musk's plans to transform the platform into an "everything app." The move follows the trend in Asia, where people use apps for various purposes, from payments and chatting to hiring and reserving restaurants. The cinemas had a successful weekend with the releases of Barbie and Oppenheimer, generating almost £30 million at the box office. The two movies, a colorful comedy and a historical drama, created an unprecedented cultural event with sold-out screenings across the UK.
