Wildfire Engulfs 3300 Hectares Near Pauls - Spain

Handout photo dated on July 13, 2025 shows satelite view of Paüls. On 7 July 2025, a wildfire broke out near the municipality of Paüls, in the province of Tarragona, Spain. The fire spread rapidly, burning over 3,300 hectares, one-third of which lie within the Parc Natural dels Ports. The blaze prompted lockdowns affecting approximately 18,000 residents in Paüls and neighbouring localities and has led to at least one casualty of a firefighter working to contain the flames in a mountainous area. This Copernicus Sentinel-2 image, acquired on 13 July 2025, shows the extent of the burn scar left by the fire. Data from the Copernicus Sentinel satellites is crucial for monitoring and mapping the extent and effects of wildfires around the world, informing damage assessments and supporting emergency management operations.
