Animals rescued from the wildfires

A forest fire burns near La Adrada, in Avila province's Tietar Valley. The area is affected by a joint wildfire crisis spanning the province of Avila and the Sierra Oeste region of Madrid, which Spanish authorities are now treating as a single, unified fire front. The combined blazes have burned more than 42,000 hectares, forced the evacuation of 23 towns ,including La Adrada, Piedralaves, Casillas, and Sotillo de la Adrada ,and left seven more under confinement orders, with tens of thousands of residents displaced across the region
