The French Prime Minister François Bayrou described a massive wildfire sweeping through the south of France as a "catastrophe on an unprecedented scale," noting that the blaze, which began near the village of La Ribaute, has scorched more than 15,000 hectares and is the largest fire in the country since 1949. With 2,150 firefighters battling the flames, authorities warn the fire could rage for several more days. Bayrou linked the disaster to global warming and drought, while climate scientists warn that hotter, drier conditions are making such fires increasingly common across Europe this summer.
