An elderly, bed-ridden woman on the island of Rhodes became the third victim of the powerful storms and torrential rainfall that lashed many regions of Greece.

The woman drowned when the water rose above the height of her bed during a torrential rain in the area of Ialysos.

Two more people drowned in western Greece after their sailboat, which had been moored at Antirio, sank due to gale-force winds.
