Fires spread from Belgium to Germany in Monschau
In eastern Belgium, a massive forest fire destroyed approximately 3,000 hectares in the High Fens Nature Reserve, with assistance from European countries including the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, and Luxembourg. Due to the fire's development and the winds that could change direction, an immediate evacuation was carried out in part of the border town of Monschau in Germany, involving 17 homes and 30 residents, with a shelter set up at a local school. Although Belgian authorities announced that the fire is partially under control, unpredictable winds continue to pose a threat to the area, and fire crews, comprising around 500 personnel and 120 vehicles, are persevering in their efforts.
