As a new heatwave hits, temperatures in France, Greece, Spain and other countries are rising, and forest fires continue to rage in many places. On July 29, forest fires in the Gironde department in southwestern France caused 7 new fire spots. Affected by the fire, railway transportation south of Bordeaux continued to be interrupted. The French National Railways said that the relevant line suspension measures will continue for many days, and advised travelers to suspend travel to affected areas. On the same day, the Fontainebleau Forest on the outskirts of Paris was revived. The fire covered an area of about 7 hectares. More than 50 firefighters, 17 fire engines, and reinforcements from other provinces rescued the scene. The fire department said that the current fire situation has not stabilized, and it is initially determined that this resurgence may be related to continued high temperatures and windy weather.
