Ready for a fiery apocalypse? On the outskirts of Marseille, a raging wildfire has already devoured about 100 hectares of brush and forest! Yes, you read that right — one hundred hectares! This blazing beast erupted overnight in the mountainous area of Opscarontini Rov, about 15 kilometers northwest of Marseille. Firefighters have thrown nearly 150 of their own into the battle, supported by planes, water bombers, and helicopters, but the fire is relentless. Around 150 people have been evacuated and rushed to safety at the port of La Ves. All this is happening while the Buscarondiron department is under an orange heatwave warning since June 27. Is this just the start of this summer’s hell? Firefighters say conditions are now favorable, but who can be sure? This is the first major fire of the season in the region and it’s already shown how furious and unpredictable nature can be. Is this the result of climate change or human carelessness? As the fight continues, we wonder — how many more hectares will burn? And how many more people will have to flee their homes? If you think this is far from you, think again. Fire doesn’t discriminate, and summer has just begun. Got a funny comment or think you know how to put out this fiery beast? Jump into the conversation. This topic is as hot as the fire itself!
