France wildfire prompts over 20,000 evacuations

A large wildfire near Saumos in southwestern France has prompted the evacuation of over 20,000 people, including tourists, as the blaze continues to burn through 2,400 hectares of pine forest. Despite efforts by 700 firefighters and waterbombing planes, the fire remains uncontrolled, with no casualties or homes lost reported. Authorities suspect the fire was started by a machine clearing undergrowth, amid ongoing intense heatwaves and dry conditions linked to climate change.
