French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin announced that nearly 200,000 people have been evacuated due to wildfires, which have consumed approximately 100,000 hectares since the beginning of the year. In response, President Macron has mobilized military resources, including 1,000 personnel and an Airbus A400M aircraft equipped to drop fire retardant. Meanwhile, Spain has declared a national emergency as wildfires near Madrid affect over 63,000 residents, exacerbated by strong winds. The EU has pledged support, dispatching firefighting aircraft and satellite imagery to assist in containment efforts.
