受持续热浪影响,西班牙阿尔梅里亚省洛加尔多斯地区发生严重野火,造成至少 12 人死亡、6 人受伤 [1]。安道卢西亚政府确认死亡人数已升至 12 人,并将此事件称为“悲剧”[1]。目前约有 150 名消防员正在 Bedar 地区参与扑救工作 [1]。当局已将约 1,000 名居民疏散至安全地带以避火灾威胁 [1]。事发时当地气温高达约 40°C(104°F)[1]。受气候变化影响,欧洲近期气温快速上升,加剧了极端天气事件及森林火灾的频率与强度 [1]。数据显示,去年西班牙共有 39.3 万公顷森林被烧毁 [1]。
A wildfire has killed at least 12 people and injured six others near Lo Garaldos in Almería province, Spain [1]. The Andalusia government confirmed the death toll rose to 12 following the blaze [1]. Regional President Juanma Moreno described the incident as a "tragedy" [1].
The fire occurred amid record-breaking temperatures of approximately 40C (104F) driven by a persistent heatwave affecting southern Europe [1]. Authorities evacuated around 1,000 residents from affected areas to ensure safety [1]. Approximately 150 firefighters were deployed to combat the flames in the Bedar region specifically [1].
The disaster highlights growing concerns over climate change, which is reported to be causing rapid temperature rises across Europe and intensifying extreme weather events like wildfires [1]. Last year alone saw Spain lose 393,000 hectares of forest land to fires [1].
