Fires Near Germany and Belgium
The largest forest fire in Belgium's history has broken out in the High Fens region, spreading over more than 7,400 acres since Friday, and approaching the German border. Firefighting teams from Belgium, Germany, and Luxembourg, with support from the military and farmers, are working to contain the blaze, which is likely to be aided by favorable weather conditions and high humidity to assist in efforts to control it. Although the fire is not expected to directly reach German territory, smoke pollution has led to the evacuation of residents near the border and the guidance for them to leave their homes. The European Union has dispatched aircraft resources to assist Belgium, which is experiencing its fifth heatwave this summer, as the risk of forest fires continues to rise due to climate change.
