A wildfire that began on Thursday in Guadalajara province has burned more than 30,000 hectares of scrubland approximately 100 kilometers north of Madrid. The fire prompted evacuations of 1,200 people across 34 municipalities in Castilla-La Mancha and involved more than 600 firefighters supported by nearly 50 aircraft. Officials described the blaze as one of the most complex in recent years amid ongoing drought, heatwave conditions above 40°C, and high winds.
