A World Weather Attribution study examined the role of human-induced climate change in recent wildfires across France and Spain using historical weather data and the Daily Severity Rating metric. The fires burned over 120,000 hectares, prompted roughly 300,000 evacuations, and led to three firefighter deaths in Greece, with the EU deploying emergency aircraft and vehicles. Attribution findings indicated increased likelihood of fire-prone conditions, though the study's methodological limits have drawn scrutiny from multiple perspectives.
