Belgium's largest forest fire controlled
Firefighting teams in Belgium have succeeded in controlling the largest forest fire in a century at Heye Fens Nature Reserve, which burned across an area of approximately 3,000 hectares of land, wetlands, and pine trees. Despite containment efforts, the situation remains complicated due to new fire outbreaks and underground fires beneath the soil. It will require weeks or months of continuous wetting of the affected areas to prevent re-ignition, with aerial support being challenging due to weather conditions. This is part of a wave of wildfires sweeping across Europe caused by drought and rising temperatures.
