Spain’s wildfires fuel political fight over climate change

Fire crews are still fighting blazes that erupted last week and have scorched nearly 200,000 acres across Spain. Authorities warn conditions remain dangerous as the country braces for another spell of extreme heat, with forecasts calling for temperatures above 100 degrees Fahrenheit beginning Wednesday. The fires have also sparked a sharp political debate, with politicians and parties arguing over how much human-driven climate change and national policies contributed to the crisis. As officials and communities focus on containment and recovery, the dispute over causes and responsibility is intensifying.
