Massive Wildfires Race Toward Bordeaux as Tens of Thousands Flee | VIDEOS
Wildfires sweeping across southwestern France forced tens of thousands of people to flee overnight as flames advanced toward Bordeaux, while parallel blazes in Spain continued to spread, extending one of Europe's most severe wildfire emergencies in years.

French authorities said the fire remained unpredictable, with Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez warning that conditions were "very unfavourable" and that the blaze was "moving erratically towards" the city, though officials said an evacuation of Bordeaux itself was not being considered.
