Several Wildfires have broken out in Algeria's Bejaia and Tizi-Ouzou provinces, threatening nearby hamlets. Emergency crews are working to extinguish the fires, which have gained strength due to strong winds. No fatalities or property damage have been reported yet, but responders warn that the blazes are spreading quickly. The region was previously devastated by forest fires in July 2020, which claimed approximately thirty lives. High temperatures and dry conditions, coupled with the possibility of a heatwave, are expected to further fuel the wildfires. The World Meteorological Organization emphasizes the need for greater climate action in light of extreme weather patterns globally.
