Spain fires recede, environmental damage remains
Spanish authorities have gained control of a large forest fire in the central part of the country, after days of widespread spreading due to the severe heatwave affecting Spain and France. The heatwave has led to extensive evacuations and the destruction of large areas of forests and wildlife. This comes amid ongoing warnings that temperatures could reach 40°C in at least six regions, which is classified as an orange alert—the second-highest level. Forecasters expect a heatwave to last for three days, accompanied by fierce winds and rising temperatures, which increases the risk of new fires breaking out in the area.
