Episode Details

A wildfire four times the size of Paris rages in southwest France, forcing 220,000 people to flee as extreme heat and wind threaten to reignite flames. Over 2,000 firefighters and 20 aircraft battle the blaze, with help pouring in from across France and Europe. The Gironde region now faces France’s largest wildfire, while coastal areas see fresh evacuations—potentially the country’s biggest peacetime displacement. Meanwhile, 60,000 evacuees return to Bordeaux suburbs untouched by fire, highlighting the volatile situation. Across France and Spain, 330,000 people were displaced, with 10,000 still in Castellón, Spain, as a fire remains out of control. Over 1,160 square kilometers have burned this year—a grim sign as Europe warms faster than the globe.
