Wildfires - Mallorca, Spain
A wildfire on the Island of Mallorca which started on Friday just east of the leisure port of Andratx has burned around 1,800 hectares, most of them of either pine forest or low-lying woodland.
About 700 people have been evacuated due to the fire in Es Grau, Ses Tanquetes and Estellenc.
About 370 firefighters, civil defense members and the military emergency unit are struggling to control the fire with the help of 24 planes and helicopters.
This is believed to the worst fire on Spanish Mallorca for 15 years.
