Europe: More than 250,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes in France and Spain as wildfires rage across both countries, with high temperatures and strong winds hampering efforts to contain the flames. In south-west France, firefighters are struggling to prevent fires from spreading towards Bordeaux, with one official saying they "are far from having the fire under control". Seven towns west of the city were ordered to evacuate overnight. In Spain, where a state of emergency has been declared, changing weather conditions have helped firefighters battling a blaze outside Madrid. However, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez warned there are "complex times ahead", while authorities in Valencia confirmed one death in a fire.
