Pay attention 丨 High temperature continues French mountain fire again

This summer, France's continuous high temperature and drought weather caused mountain fires in many places, and the southwestern France ignited mountain fire again. As of the morning of the 13th local time, the fire has not been controlled.

The forest fire occurred on the 12th suburbs of Bordeaux in southwestern France. On the 12th, a forest fire broke out. The strong winds grew the fire. The fire extinguishing operation was difficult. 350 firefighters had been dispatched in the local area.

As of the morning of the 13th, the forest fire had led to 1,300 hectares of forest land and many buildings including the house, and more than 540 residents nearby were evacuated.

The French Meteorological Administration said on the 13th that the three rounds of hot waves since June have made this summer the second hot summer since France's related records in 1900. The European Forest Fire Information System shows that since this year, more than 60,000 hectares of land in France have been burned. This number is 6 times the average level from 2006 to 2021. The southwestern France is the hardest hit area for forest fires. The forest fire that occurred in July was burned more than 20,000 hectares of forest land, and nearly 40,000 residents were evacuated.
