MAJOR FRENCH WILDFIRE UNLIKELY TO BE CONTAINED BEFORE LATE SUNDAY . (PHOTO).


 Major French wildfire unlikely to be contained before late Sunday 

A wildfire raging in the southern French department of Aude is not expected to be fully controlled until late Sunday, regional chief firefighter Colonel Christophe Magny said on French television.

The blaze, which started on Tuesday, is among the largest in France since 1949. It has scorched roughly 16,000 hectares (about 40,000 acres), resulting in one death, injuries to 19 firefighters and six civilians, and the destruction of dozens of homes.

Magny explained that while the fire is currently contained, it remains uncontrolled, with active hot spots expected to persist until Sunday evening. Local authorities have reopened all departmental roads, but access to the wildfire zone remains prohibited due to the risk of flare-ups.

French officials have linked the severity of the fire to climate change. An orange heatwave warning—the second highest level, urging vigilance—is in effect for the area through midnight Sunday.

Compounding the problem, local vineyards that historically served as natural firebreaks by retaining moisture had been largely uprooted prior to the fire. This was due to declining wine consumption and reduced subsidies, which led growers to cut back on vineyard acreage.
