Europe's summer was marked by record temperatures and climate disasters, including historic floods and wildfires.
Flooding triggered by severe rainstorms also hit neighboring Bulgaria and Turkey, leaving a total of 15 people dead in the three countries.
Officials said they were examining the possibility that the casualties were migrants who had entered the country from the nearby border with Turkey.
Authorities continue to battle blazes that have been raging for days across the country amid a return of heat wave temperatures.
