LISBON, July 13 —Several large wildfires raged in central Portugal and western Spain menacing villages amid a heatwave that meteorologists expect to push the temperatures to near or above record highs later today, likely stoking more blazes.
The World Meteorological Organisation warned yesterday the heatwave was spreading and intensifying in large parts of Europe. In Spain’s western region of Extremadura bordering Portugal firefighters evacuated a few hundred villagers overnight as a precaution and continued to battle a complicated blaze that on Tuesday swept into neighbouring Salamanca province in the region of Castile and Leon.
