Description

Europe is facing a wildfire crisis as flames devour Belgium’s High Fens nature reserve — now larger than the country’s worst blaze ever recorded — and deadly fires rage on Greece’s Salamina island, claiming two lives. Over 250 firefighters from Belgium, Germany, and beyond, aided by helicopters and water-bombing aircraft from Sweden, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic, battle the infernos fueled by record heat and bone-dry soil. Local farmers are even lending a hand, hauling water to support crews as extreme weather continues to threaten the continent.
