A catastrophic wildfire in central Spain, devouring 32,000 hectares near Guadalajara, has forced 34 villages to evacuate—though no lives have been lost. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez visited the scene, blaming climate change for escalating fire seasons, as Spain already recorded 22 major blazes this year, burning four times more land than last July. With over 100,000 hectares scorched in just six months—equal to an entire decade’s average—firefighters, aided by aerial drops, are racing to contain the blaze by Friday. Amid a scorching heatwave pushing temperatures to 40°C, wind and dryness fuel rapid spread, making this Spain’s most destructive fire season yet. One mayor hailed the firefighters’ courage as heroic, likening them to World Cup champions.
