France and Spain race to contain wildfires
The article discusses efforts to combat the massive wildfires that erupted in France and Spain during a severe heatwave, with firefighters racing against time to extinguish the flames before conditions worsen, especially with another heatwave expected. Approximately 220,000 people were evacuated in France, and nearly 100,000 in Spain. Authorities confirmed that most of the fires were caused by human negligence. Over the past week, burned areas in France surpassed record levels, and the Avila fire in Spain became the largest in recent history, with warnings of weather conditions that could escalate the fires in the coming days. Firefighters, coordinated with international teams, continue to work under immense pressure to limit damage and protect lives and property, amid growing fears of old munitions potentially exploding in some regions.
