Algeria forest fires: At least 65 people killed as fires spread.

Wildfires tearing through northern Algeria have now killed at least 65 people, including 28 soldiers deployed to help the firefighters.

The blazes in the mountainous Kabylie region are some of the worst in the country's history. Officials have blamed arson for many of them.

President Abdelmadjid Tebboune has declared three days of national mourning for the victims.

A total of 69 fires were burning on Wednesday, amid a heatwave sweeping across North Africa. The flames have been fanned by strong winds and tinder-dry conditions.

A wildfire raging in northeastern Siberia could become the largest in recorded history, experts from Greenpeace Russia told The Moscow Times on Wednesday.
The republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Russia’s largest and coldest region, has been devastated by unprecedented wildfires that are now larger than the rest of the world's blazes combined. Residents have been under a state of emergency for weeks as thick, acrid smoke blankets settlements and reaches cities thousands of kilometers away, while thousands of volunteers have been recruited to fight the fires.

The largest of these fires has exceeded 1.5 million hectares in size, the Greenpeace environmental group's forestry head Alexey Yaroshenko told The Moscow Times.

“This fire has to grow by about 400,000 hectares to become the biggest in documented history,” Yaroshenko said. “It is impossible to contain this fire through human efforts. ... Firefighters would have to put out a line of fire 2,000 kilometers long.”

With weeks left to go in the wildfire season, the European Union’s Copernicus satellite monitoring service said that the Siberian forest fires have already emitted a record 505 megatons of carbon dioxide.

And satellite observations by NASA’s Earth-monitoring tool MODIS showed that smoke from the wildfires reached the North Pole for what is believed to be the first time in known history last week.

Nationwide, over 13.4 million hectares of land have been burned by wildfires — an area roughly the size of Greece — so far in 2021, Greenpeace says, citing official data.

Euroopat tabas taas kuumalaine.

Euroopas on kuumalaine ning Suurbritannias kuulutati erakordselt palava ilma tõttu välja hädaolukord.

Portugalis ja Hispaanias on õhutemperatuur tõusnud 40 kraadini, mitmel pool lõõmavad maastikupõlengud, vahendas "Aktuaalne kaamera".

Lääne-Hispaanias on mitme asula inimesed evakueeritud. Prantsusmaa edelaosas, Bordeaux's käivad politseinikud ukselt uksele, et veenda inimesi evakueeruma, kuna maastikupõlengud lähenevad elamupiirkonnale.

Itaalia Po jõe kallastel on õhutemperatuur tõusnud viimase kahesaja aasta rekordtasemele. Kuna ka talv oli kuiv ja lumeta, on jõe veetase madal ja piirkonnas valitseb põud.
