Kumanaan qof ayaa la amrey inay ka guuraan Khamiista iyadoo dabka kaymaha uu ku sii fidaya Spain, France iyo Italy. Heerkulka ilaa 40 darajo Celsius ayaa la saadaaliyay, halka 2026 ay horey u dhaaftay celceliska tobanaan sano.
Spain waxay ku dhawaaqday xaalad degdeg ah
Spain waxay daboolay xaalad qaran oo degdeg ah gobolka Madrid iyo gobolka Avila xilligii dambe ee Khamiista, taasoo ujeedkeedu yahay dedejinta agabka lagula dagaallamayo ololka dabka. Tallaabadu waxay gacan siisay in qiyaastii 10,000 qof ay ka guuraan aaggaas.
Qaranku wuxuu jawaab celinta u wareejiyay cutubka gargaarka musiibada ee Ciidanka Spain. Ra'iisul Wasaare Pedro Sanchez ayaa X ku qoray: 'the government has deployed every available resource to stop the terrible fires currently affecting numerous areas: Avila, Leon, Toledo, Madrid and other parts of Spain.'
France waxay caawimaad ka raadisay Midowga Yurub
Madaxweyne Emmanuel Macron ayaa sheegay in France ay wacday nidaamka ilaalinta madaniga ah ee EU si ay ugaaliyo dabka kaymaha. Wuxuu ku daray: 'We will soon have support from two Croatian Canadair aircraft, two Portuguese Air Tractors and two heavy-lift Black Hawk helicopters from the Czech Republic and Slovakia.'
Mas'uuliyiinta ayaa 7,000 qof u daqiiqayso ka saaray woqooyiga Cap Ferret, u dhow Arcachon Bay, iyadoo wadarta gurayaasha ay gaartay 12,000. Dabku wuxuu baabiiyay qiyaastii 2,000 hektar ayuu xaqiijiyay Arbaco.
Italy: Dab iyo eedeyn gubasho
Sicily waxaa laga diray qiyaastii 6,000 oo dab-demiye, ilaalin-kaymo iyo mas'uuliyiin ilaalinta madaniga ah kadib dab badan. Renato Schifani wuxuu sheegay in qiyaastii 50 dab ay wali hurinayan inkastoo diyaaradaha biyaha lagu qubeeyo la isticmaalay.
Calabria ee dhul-weynaha Italy, in kabadan 160 dab ayaa la diiwaangeliyay. Saraakiisha deegaanka ayaa ku eedeeyay 'shaqsiyaad xaasid ah' gubasho, iyagoo tilmaamay maro saliid ah oo dabooyinka bisadaha lagu xidhay si dab loo faafiyo.
Tens of thousands of people were urged to evacuate on Thursday as forest fires continued to tear through Spain, France and Italy. Temperatures of up to 40 degrees Celsius were forecast in some areas. In 2026, European wildfires have already exceeded the past two-decade annual average.
Spain declares emergency and mobilizes military
Spain declared a national emergency in the Madrid region and the province of Avila late on Thursday. The measure aims to speed up deployment of resources and transfers crisis response to the military emergency unit specialized in disaster relief, after some 10,000 people were forced to evacuate.
Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez posted on X that "the government has deployed every available resource to stop the terrible fires currently affecting numerous areas: Avila, Leon, Toledo, Madrid and other parts of Spain." He visited Guadalajara where over 30 villages were evacuated, stating "Year after year we clearly see how climate change kills and destroys wealth in our communities. This isn't politics. It is science, it's about facts."
France requests EU assistance amid evacuations
President Emmanuel Macron said that France has invoked the EU's civil protection mechanism to ask for help to tackle forest fires. He posted that "We will soon have support from two Croatian Canadair aircraft, two Portuguese Air Tractors and two heavy-lift Black Hawk helicopters from the Czech Republic and Slovakia."
Authorities evacuated 7,000 people as a precaution on Thursday north of Cap Ferret near Arcachon Bay, bringing total evacuees there to 12,000. Fires had ravaged around 2,000 hectares by Wednesday. Climate change is making such extreme weather events more frequent and severe.
Italy battles blazes and suspects arson
Around 6,000 firefighters and officials have been deployed across Sicily after days of fires. Regional president Renato Schifani said about 50 fires were still burning despite water-bombing aircraft. In Calabria, more than 160 fires have been recorded.
Local officials in Calabria accused "malicious individuals" of arson, pointing to rags doused in flammable liquid tied to stray cats' tails to spread fires. The widespread evacuations and destruction reflect a worsening wildfire crisis across southern Europe this summer.
