EU Deploys Aerial Support for Fires
The European Commission announced the deployment of aerial resources to support Spain and France in combating the large wildfires that have spread across several regions. The civil protection mechanism was activated based on an official request, with four aircraft sent to Spain and three aircraft along with two helicopters to France, supported by satellite imagery through the Copernicus program to monitor the fires' development. Additionally, 777 firefighters have been stationed in the affected areas. The mechanism is coordinating European resources following the receipt of official requests, aiming to reduce the damage caused by the fires and to contain them rapidly.
