France's Interior Minister manages major wildfire
The control of the largest wildfire in France since 1949 has been announced. The fire broke out near the city of Bordeaux in a pine forest in the southwest of the country and lasted for more than a week. The blaze consumed 42,000 hectares of forest and destroyed around 240 homes, leading to the evacuation of approximately 220,000 people. Climate scientists attribute the cause of the wildfire wave to the heatwave and drought, which are the main reasons behind the widespread fires. Although the fire is now under control, some areas are still burning, and firefighters continue their efforts to extinguish the flames completely.
