In Andalusia, southern Spain, a devastating wildfire has claimed at least 12 lives and scorched approximately 66,000 stremma (roughly 16,300 acres or 6,600 hectares) of land. Fears are mounting that the death toll could rise as firefighters battle the blaze under difficult conditions. The fire is one of the deadliest in Spain in recent years and arrives amid a broader pattern of increasingly extreme fire seasons across southern Europe.
