Spain and Portugal Battle Wildfires as Death Toll Mounts
The Daily Guardian
|August 19, 2025
Thousands of firefighters, backed by the military and water-bombing aircraft, on Monday battled dozens of wildfires across Spain and Portugal, as the death toll increased to six since the outbreaks began.
The Iberian peninsula has been particularly affected by forest fires fueled by a succession of heatwaves and droughts blamed on climate change that have hit the southern Mediterranean.
Two firefighters were killed on Sunday—one in each country, both in road accidents—taking the death toll to two in Portugal and four in Spain.
