法国西南部发生特大野火灾害，已造成超过25万人被迫撤离家园。[1][7]其中吉伦特省在周日一夜间撤离5.5万人，该地区总撤离人数达22万。[1]南部兰德地区另有3万人撤离。[1]自周中以来，火灾在强风助推下失控蔓延，[1]目前已烧毁4.2万公顷林地，[3][5]火势最近距波尔多仅15公里。[1]
这场大火规模创造了多项纪录。烧毁面积是巴黎面积的四倍，[5][7]且超过1949年以来的任何时期记录。[5]吉伦特地区自周三以来已有至少240栋房屋被毁。[8]法国参与救援的力量包括2500名消防员、1500名军事人员和1200名警察及宪兵。[3][5][8]灾情仍在加重：两名法国消防员在波尔多大火中丧生，[3]84名消防员受伤。[8]火灾还导致波尔多机场周日下午航班延误和取消，易捷航空28班飞行延误、5班被取消。[3]A63高速公路60公里路段被关闭。[3]环法自行车赛最后一阶段也从133公里缩短至89公里。[3]
西班牙同样面临严峻火灾形势。西班牙中部三个省份的野火已蔓延77000公顷，近9万人被迫撤离家园。[2][6]西班牙政府宣布全国紧急状态。[2]截至报告时间，西班牙2026年已有1140平方公里被火焰吞没，是2025年同期烧毁面积的五倍多。[4]
欧洲过去一周已撤离超过33万人。[3]欧盟向法国派遣3架灭火飞机，向西班牙派遣4架。[4]法国总统马克龙召集危机会议应对，承诺"我们将重建、修复，并尽可能长时间地提供支持"。[7]西班牙首相桑切斯表示需要一个关于气候紧急情况的重大公众协议。[2]已报告至少3人死亡——法国两名消防员和西班牙一名平民。[8]
Devastating wildfires sweeping across southwestern France and central Spain have displaced more than 250,000 people from their homes.[1][2][4] In France's Gironde region near Bordeaux, approximately 220,000 residents have been evacuated, with 55,000 fleeing in a single night on Sunday alone.[1][3] The fire has consumed 42,000 hectares—four times the size of Paris—marking one of the largest forest fires since 1949.[3][5] The flames have crept within 15 kilometers of Bordeaux, France's renowned wine city.[1] Across the border, Spain has evacuated approximately 75,000 to 90,000 people from Madrid and Avila regions, with an additional 15,000 from Valencia, as fires spread across 77,000 hectares.[2][3][6]
The intensity and unpredictability of the blazes have posed extraordinary challenges to firefighting efforts. France's Interior Minister Laurent Nunez characterized the fires as "extremely fierce and unpredictable," with flames generating their own winds.[2][5] At least three people have died—two French firefighters in the Bordeaux fires and one Spanish civilian in Valencia.[3][4][8] France has deployed 2,500 firefighters, 1,500 military personnel, and nearly 1,200 police officers and gendarmes, while Spain has mobilized 1,200 soldiers and 400 vehicles.[2][3] In Gironde, 240 houses have been completely destroyed, and 84 firefighters have been injured.[8] The European Union has dispatched rescue aircraft—three to France and four to Spain—to support containment efforts.[4]
The disaster has disrupted daily life across the region. A 60-kilometer stretch of the A63 highway was closed in France, and Bordeaux Airport experienced significant flight delays and cancellations, with easyJet postponing 28 flights and canceling 5 others on Sunday.[3] The final stage of the Tour de France cycling race was shortened from 133 kilometers to 89 kilometers due to the fires.[3] Spain's government declared a national emergency state.[2] President Macron convened an emergency crisis meeting to coordinate France's response, pledging that "we will rebuild, repair, and provide support for as long as possible."[7] Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez emphasized the need for "a major public agreement on climate emergency," while King Felipe VI stated that "collectively, we have lost immeasurable natural heritage."[2]
