Berlin, August 01 (QNA) – A wildfire in southern Germany was burning out of control on Saturday as strong winds hampered firefighters’ efforts to contain the blaze, local authorities said.
The fire broke out in a forest near Freudenberg, in the Amberg-Sulzbach district of Upper Palatinate, Bavaria. About 330 emergency personnel have been deployed to battle the blaze, authorities said.
Officials said strong winds have fueled the fire, while rugged terrain has hampered firefighting efforts and allowed the blaze to spread beyond containment.
The blaze comes amid a wave of extreme weather sweeping across Europe, with Spain, France and Greece battling destructive wildfires fueled by scorching heat. (QNA)
