Southern Europe wildfire toll rises
Southern Europe is currently experiencing intense wildfires causing the deaths of three firefighters and the evacuation of thousands of residents and tourists. These fires are the result of a record-breaking heatwave and drought, which are being worsened by climate change driven by human activities, particularly the use of fossil fuels. In France, over 12,000 people have been evacuated as more than 4,500 hectares have burned. In Italy, about 100 individuals have been evacuated, and one firefighter has been killed. Meanwhile, the fires in Spain have led to widespread evacuations and loss of life, including 13 fatalities. The total number of fires since the beginning of the year exceeds 12,500, with temperatures soaring above 40°C contributing to the worsening situation.
