Friday, 27 March 2026/CretaOne/1 

A stone wall has collapsed above a popular beach in Agios Nikolaos in the Lasithi region of Crete. The incident occurred following intense weather conditions that swept across the island around March 25th. According to reports, the Agios Nikolaos Municipality area experienced particularly heavy rainfall, with nearly 67.8 millimeters recorded.

While no serious damage to major infrastructure or private facilities has been reported, the wall collapse highlights the impact of severe weather on the island's structures. Authorities have not yet clarified the exact causes that led to the wall's collapse, though the intense rainfall and weather conditions appear to be contributing factors.
