Southwest France fire consumes 1100 hectares
A new fire has broken out in a pine forest in southwestern France, with the flames currently spreading across 1,100 hectares. Efforts to extinguish the fire continue, and the situation has improved thanks to lower temperatures and increased humidity. However, authorities anticipate a return of the heatwave, which could lead to new fires, especially following a major wildfire in the Gironde region that destroyed 42,000 hectares and forced the evacuation of 220,000 people. This occurred amid a third heatwave sweeping the country. Firefighting efforts remain ongoing until complete containment is achieved.
