'We could look back and see the fires actually raging on the ground in the centre of Rhodes.'
Arlene Foster has told how "very fortunate" she and her family were to escape the wildfires in Rhodes.
Dame Arlene said she had a "wonderful holiday" and was "quite oblivious" to what was happening elsewhere on the island until Saturday when she was due to leave. "I'm told that they have fires most summers, but this is certainly the worst they've had for many, many years."
