Forest fires have been affecting several European countries, including Spain and France. The past 20 years have seen an increase in the area burned each year, with 2025 being the worst year on record. The area burned in 2025 exceeded 1 million hectares, significantly higher than the average of around 500,000 hectares per year.

Further information on the forest fires, including updates on the situation, can be found through CNN's coverage, which is updated periodically throughout the day.
