Belgian firefighters use fire lines after weather change
Firefighters in Belgium have begun digging a firebreak to control a forest fire in High Fens, which has burned approximately 3,000 hectares since Friday. Aerial efforts were halted due to rain and clouds, forcing teams to work manually by removing the top layer of soil and vegetation to reach hard-to-access areas. The fire front did not advance overnight thanks to improved weather conditions, and four firefighters sustained minor injuries.
