法国吉伦特地区爆发的大规模野火造成严重伤亡和人道主义危机[1]。根据官方统计，264名消防员在扑火过程中受伤，4人丧生[1]。火灾引发了法国自二战以来最大规模的人员撤离行动，22万人被紧急疏散[1]。
面对这场灾难，欧盟成员国迅速启动危机管理机制进行跨境支援[1]。德国、斯洛伐克、葡萄牙、西班牙、比利时、瑞典、捷克、瑞士和土耳其等国派遣消防队伍和飞机参与救援[1]。扑火工作中，当地建立了150公里长的防火隔离带[1]。截至周六，法国内政部宣布大火已不再扩散[1]。
欧盟危机管理主任哈迪亚·拉布布借此事件呼吁加大气候防御投入，提议预算增加至107亿欧元（约合123亿美元）[1]。她强调："气候变化已经来到我们门前。它已经在这里"[1]，以此突出气候变化对欧洲带来的现实威胁。
A severe wildfire in France's Gironde region has prompted an unprecedented international response from the European Union, with the crisis resulting in significant casualties and displacement. A total of 264 firefighters have been injured and 4 have died combating the blaze [1], while approximately 220,000 residents have been evacuated—marking France's largest evacuation since World War II [1].
The disaster has triggered coordinated assistance across Europe through the EU's crisis management mechanism. Germany, Slovakia, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Sweden, Czech Republic, Switzerland, and Turkey have dispatched firefighting teams and aircraft to support containment efforts [1]. Authorities have constructed a 150-kilometer firebreak in the Gironde region to halt the fire's advance [1], and as of Saturday, France's interior ministry announced that the blaze is no longer spreading [1].
EU Crisis Management Director Hadia Rabbou has responded to the emergency by calling for increased climate defense funding, proposing a budget of €10.7 billion (approximately $12.3 billion) [1]. Rabbou emphasized the urgency of climate action, stating that "climate change has already come to our doorstep. It is already here" [1], underscoring the critical need for enhanced preparedness and prevention measures across the continent.
