Wildfires continue to devastate southwestern France, particularly the Gironde region, since July 22nd. At least 42,000 hectares have burned – an area nearly four times the size of Paris – forcing 220,000 people to evacuate their homes. While the night of July 27-28 saw flare-ups north of Porge and in the northern part of Cap-Ferret, authorities report these are now under control. The total burned area has remained stable, with no further significant expansion. Firefighters are continuing to monitor the situation and address any potential rekindling of flames. The situation remains serious despite the stabilization, highlighting the ongoing risk of wildfires in the region.
