In the Fontainebleau Forest, rescuers are battling exceptional fires

An exceptional wildfire is raging through the Fontainebleau Forest in Seine-et-Marne, France, threatening over 1,300 hectares of land. More than 500 firefighters are battling the blaze, which has been exacerbated by heatwaves and the presence of peat in the soil, which fuels the fire. The minister of Interior, Laurent Nuñez, has suggested the fire may have a 'voluntary origin,' leading to the arrest of two individuals suspected of setting fires intentionally or accidentally. Firefighters are operating in remote areas without internet access, using tents to shelter supplies and coordinating efforts across multiple regions.
