France combats a wildfire in the Fontainebleau forest near Paris, which has scorched 2,400 acres and disrupted traffic. Aircraft and firefighters are deployed, with authorities investigating whether the fire was intentionally set. The blaze, exacerbated by a heatwave, has forced evacuations and prompted residents to assist in containment efforts.

Wildfires in southern France, fueled by heat and drought, have scorched over 900 hectares in Aude and Herault regions, with 800 firefighters and 150 vehicles deployed. Additional water-bomber aircraft were mobilized as high temperatures and strong winds worsen conditions. The Aude region, frequently affected by wildfires, faces ongoing drought with no rain forecast.
