A construction worker in Spain could face up to ten years in prison after allegedly sparking the country’s worst wildfire ever—by using an excavator with a hydraulic hammer in bone-dry conditions. The blaze, which scorched 190 square miles and displaced 90,000 people, may have been ignited by sparks from his unpermitted, poorly equipped machinery. Authorities are pushing for prosecution as Europe grapples with record heat and soaring wildfire risks, turning this incident into a stark warning about the dangers of human error in extreme weather.
