France and Spain battle wildfires as more than 250,000 people forced to flee homes

France and Spain are battling severe wildfires that have displaced over 250,000 people. France shortened the Tour de France's final stage to redeploy officers and used a military aircraft to combat a blaze near Bordeaux, while Spain evacuated 70,000 people. The fires, fueled by high temperatures and climate change, have prompted mass evacuations and the mobilization of military personnel and resources.
