The skies over Europe glow red, cities are threatened by raging fire

Forest fires give European firefighters a stressful and continuous job. So far, there seems to be no downtime, and August has never been milder than July. In Montenegro, two people were injured while fighting a fire that broke out over a coastal city, and in France, a fire devoured about 600 hectares of land in one night.

Wildfires continue to devastate Europe

A massive fire broke out over a beach in the Montenegrin port city of Bar late Wednesday night. A firefighter and a resident sustained minor burns, and the buildings were rescued from the flames.

Because of the fire, road traffic was halted and trains did not operate in the affected areas. Strong winds and inaccessible terrain made it difficult for firefighters to work, but authorities said they had managed to contain the flames by Thursday morning.

The giant blaze at night was the sixth intervention of specialists in the area on Wednesday, in drought, disasters occur one after another.

The sight of the night sky reddened by forest fires is enough for French firefighters.

In one night, the fire devoured about 600 hectares in the Gironde province.

The flames then spread to the neighboring county, closing highways. Hot days are not conducive to the work of the vaccinated participants, either.

Specialists also try to light counterfires, predicting that the flames they lit will extinguish each other when they encounter wildfires. The fires have not caused as much damage in France as this year. Almost 60 thousand hectares of land have burned so far.
