A forest fire has broken out in Argentina’s Cordoba province, triggered by a heatwave. The flames rapidly approached residential areas in Villa Carlos Paz, leading to the evacuation of at least 600 people. Government resources, including 960 firefighters, 8 firefighting planes, and 2 helicopters, were deployed to combat the blaze. The thick smoke made breathing difficult, and many animals lost their lives. A suspect was detained on suspicion of arson, claiming the fire started accidentally while lighting a campfire. The challenging conditions, with high temperatures, low humidity, and strong winds, are hampering firefighting efforts.

Armed clashes between Druze and Bedouin groups in the southern Syrian city of Sweida have left over 30 dead and 100 injured, according to the Interior Ministry.
The violence reportedly began after a series of kidnappings, including the abduction of a Druze merchant on the Damascus-Sweida highway. Authorities have deployed security forces and promised to prosecute those responsible.
Interior Minister Enes Hattab urged public cooperation, stating, “Security must be ensured, and civilian peace restored.” Experts warn the violence could escalate further if not contained.
