At least one person has died as a torrential storm batters parts of Greece, leaving many homes and roads flooded.
Storm Daniel has swept over the western and central regions of the country bringing heavy rain, extreme winds and hail.
The storm has claimed the life of one man, who died after a wall collapsed and fell on him in the coastal city of Volos, the fire department said.
Another man is reported missing after his car was dragged away by the floodwaters and a search operation is under way to find him.
Greek police ordered a traffic ban in Volos and the nearby mountain region of Pelion as torrents ravage the streets, with footage from state broadcaster ERT showing other cars being carried away.
Emergency service and roadside assistance vehicles will be stationed until the storm subsides, police said.
Authorities also warned residents in central Greece, as well as the Sporades island chain and the island of Evia near Athens, urging them to stay indoors.
