"Zombie fires" threaten France

A huge fire that has destroyed more than a dozen houses and led to the evacuation of thousands of residents is spreading in the Gironde region of south-west France.

Authorities suspect that the created situation is the result of so-called "zombie fires", an early fire that burns on the ground and then ignites again.

"It is likely that the fire spread underground and then started again in green areas. At this point, the flames, also due to the drought and lack of moisture, quickly restarted and rekindled the pines," says a firefighter.

About 1,000 firefighters are fighting the flames that have burned 6,000 hectares of pine trees since Tuesday afternoon.

Scorching temperatures in Europe, accompanied by a lack of rain, are affecting the continent's major rivers. Authorities in Germany are warning that the water level in the Rehn could reach a critical quota in the coming days, making it difficult to transport goods there.

Meanwhile in England, where a health alert has been announced due to the heat, the main source of the River Thames is drying up.

This year's driest start in decades has moved the source of the iconic English river many miles downstream, leaving behind scorched earth and the occasional pool where water once flowed.
