The Macedonian police were instructed not to let the Greek refugees pass, who were trying to penetrate the police cordon by putting the women and children in front. What ensued was a violent and emotional tussle which can be seen in this image.

Fueled by four years of severe drought, The Rocky Fire in California charred down more than 20,000 acres in less than 24 hours. Looks like a scene out of a Michael Bay movie, doesn’t it?
