Under the title of European Wildfires, France announced the allocation of 12 million euros for the reconstruction of affected areas in the southwest of the country, where fires are ongoing alongside unprecedented heat waves and drought. Ten million euros have been designated for the Gironde region, and two million euros for the municipality of Land, with the total cost expected to exceed 100 million euros. Additionally, affected companies will be exempted from social security contributions for three months. France has also managed to control a regional fire that destroyed 190 hectares, while a fire in Aragon, Spain, has burned over 17,000 hectares. In Belgium, rainfall helped efforts to contain a fire that destroyed approximately 3,000 hectares. Two fires on the Greek island of Salamis have been brought under control, resulting in two deaths and the evacuation of 600 people. Moreover, efforts to combat two fires in northern Portugal are ongoing.
