France’s Wildfire Crisis Deepens | Global News
Description
Two firefighters died battling a massive wildfire near Bordeaux Airport in France, part of a devastating surge in fires fueled by record-breaking heatwaves. The blaze, which began as a brush fire and spread to a building, drew over 100 firefighters and specialized aircraft. France is now grappling with nearly 11,000 fires this year — the most since WWII — burning over 42,000 hectares, shattering previous records. President Macron warned this is a climate crisis unfolding in real time, with Europe’s warming temperatures driving increasingly destructive wildfires across the continent, including deadly blazes in Spain.
