The worst wildfires in southwestern France and central Spain have forced over 260,000 people to evacuate. In France, fires spread near Bordeaux, displacing 197,000 people, while wildfires near Madrid in Spain caused 70,000 people to leave their homes. The French government is mobilizing military personnel and aircraft to put out the fires with all its might, and Spanish Prime Minister Sánchez emphasized the importance of responding to the climate crisis. Both countries are also experiencing air quality deterioration.
