Fire prompts evacuation of 2,500 in southeastern France
The fires that broke out in the Var region of southeastern France, which led to the evacuation of approximately 2,500 people, represent one of the worst wildfire seasons in the country this year. After fires rekindled across an area exceeding 1,000 hectares, involving about 1,500 firefighters, 10 aircraft, and helicopters, authorities have so far been unable to fully control them, despite ongoing efforts. The fires in July destroyed more than 5,600 hectares of land, while over 116,000 hectares have been burned so far in 2026, marking an unprecedented wildfire crisis in France.
