A series of large wildfires has started across Portugal, Spain, France, and Greece, requiring the mobilization of emergency services and international cooperation.

葡萄牙、西班牙、法國與希臘接連爆發多場大規模山火，需要動員緊急救援服務與國際合作。

The current crisis has caused significant damage to the land and required a huge amount of resources. In Portugal, a fire in the Vouzela region affected about 12,000 to 13,000 hectares, which led to closer cooperation between EU member states; specifically, Spain and Italy sent staff and aircraft to help Portuguese authorities. Similarly, Spain's Girona region reported that 2,200 hectares were destroyed, while containment efforts were made difficult by persistent heat. In France, fires in the Pyrenees-Orientales and Drome departments burned over 2,500 hectares. Consequently, approximately 5,000 residents were evacuated, and the Tour de France route was changed to remove spectators and advertising vehicles for safety reasons.

目前的危機對土地造成了嚴重損害，並消耗了大量資源。在葡萄牙，Vouzela 地區的一場火災影響了約 12,000 到 13,000 公頃，促使歐盟成員國之間加強合作；特別是西班牙與義大利派遣了人員與飛機協助葡萄牙當局。同樣地，西班牙 Girona 地區報告有 2,200 公頃土地被毀，而持續的高溫使得滅火工作困難重重。在法國，Pyrenees-Orientales 與 Drome 省的山火燒毀了超過 2,500 公頃。因此，約 5,000 名居民被疏散，且環法單車賽（Tour de France）路徑因安全理由而更改，以移除觀眾與廣告車。

In Greece, the situation is complicated by industrial risks and human error. A wildfire near Thessaloniki burned a recycling plant and an oil facility, creating toxic smoke that forced city residents to stay indoors. This incident led to the arrest of a 76-year-old man suspected of negligence. Furthermore, another fire in the Mandra area required 210 firefighters and 29 aircraft. The Hellenic Fire Service emphasized that about 85% of domestic wildfires are caused by human negligence. To reduce future risks, Greece is using four satellites for better monitoring, as climate change continues to make these events more frequent.

在希臘，工業風險與人為錯誤使情況更加複雜。塞薩洛尼基（Thessaloniki）附近的一場山火燒毀了一座回收廠與一個油庫，產生有毒煙霧，迫使城市居民留在室內。此事件導致一名被懷疑疏忽的 76 歲男子被捕。此外，Mandra 地區的另一場火災需要 210 名消防員與 29 架飛機。希臘消防局強調，約 85% 的國內山火是由人為疏忽引起。為了降低未來風險，希臘正利用四顆衛星進行更好的監測，因為氣候變遷使這些事件變得更加頻繁。

These fires follow a period of extreme heat across Europe. The World Meteorological Organisation and the World Weather Attribution group stated that June's heatwaves—which caused thousands of extra deaths in France, Belgium, and the Netherlands—would have been almost impossible without human-caused climate change. Moreover, the intensification of El Niño is expected to increase the likelihood of drought and extreme heat, which will likely extend the wildfire season.

這些山火發生在歐洲經歷一段極端高溫期之後。世界氣象組織（WMO）與世界天氣歸因（World Weather Attribution）小組指出，六月的熱浪導致法國、比利時與荷蘭增加了數千人死亡，若非人為氣候變遷，這種情況幾乎不可能發生。此外，聖嬰現象（El Niño）的加劇預計將增加乾旱與極端高溫的可能性，很可能會延長山火季節。

Southern Europe remains on high alert as firefighting operations continue and temperatures are expected to stay high.

由於滅火行動仍在進行且預計氣溫將維持高位，南歐地區仍處於高度戒備狀態。
