Macron urges military deployment over wildfires
President Emmanuel Macron has announced that he has ordered the French military to mobilize to assist civil services in confronting the wildfires ravaging the country, in response to the spread of fires caused by an unprecedented heatwave. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu has been tasked with activating the interministerial emergency team. This decision comes after the wildfires in the Gironde region destroyed 14,000 hectares and prompted the evacuation of 110,000 people. These developments follow a record number of fires this summer in France, with the meteorological service raising the alert level to its highest grade as temperatures approach 40°C in many parts of the country.
