France’s fast-moving wildfires driven by strong wind and dry conditions

France is fighting an ‘unpredictable’ major wildfire close to Bordeaux on Sunday (Jul 26) which has gone unchecked for days, driven by strong wind and dry conditions. The wildfires in southwest France have swept through the Gironde region, prompting the government to mobilise aerial support to join the firefighting fleet, using fire retardant and water to combat the blaze. At least 220,000 people from southwest France have been evacuated. #France #wildfire
