A photo shows fire engines parked at an area where firefighters gather to rest on the sidelines of working to put out wildfires in Correns, southeastern France, on August 1, 2026. The situation on the fire front remained "extremely precarious" in the evening on August 1 evening in the southeastern Var department, due to a heatwave and strong winds, whilst in the Gironde most of those who had been evacuated were able to return to their homes after ten days of battling a mega-fire that is now "contained" but not "extinguished".
