Belgium plans national wildfire and climate strategy
The Belgian government announced its intention to develop a national plan to combat wildfires and climate crises, following the outbreak of the largest forest fire in the country in over a century. The fire burned more than 3,000 hectares in the Hauts Fagnes Nature Reserve in the eastern part of the country and necessitated evacuations before it was brought under control. The plan will focus on strengthening prevention efforts and allocations, along with increased investment in emergency equipment, especially in light of the rising risks posed by climate change and wildfires.
