For the 10th day in a row, large forest fires are sweeping through northern Italy, destroying hundreds of hectares in the Piedmont area. The flames are being fanned by a combination of intense heat, powerful winds, and a lack of rain. Footage circulating online captures planes dumping water on the affected woodlands. Similar wildfires are currently spreading through Greece, France, Spain, and Portugal following the record-shattering heat experienced in June.
