Europe’s wildfire crisis fractures as Greece evacuates and France guards megafire scar
Europe's wildfire crisis intensifies with Greece facing evacuations due to gale-force winds driving flames into western Attica, France containing a massive Gironde fire while guarding against its spread, and Spain's major fires halting advancement. Climate change is linked to increased fire intensity, with Europe warming over twice the global average since the 1980s.
