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.

Palestinian Civil Defense teams announced that the bodies of 48 Palestinians who were killed at the Israeli bombardment of Shifa Hospital and buried in its garden have been exhumed.
Thirty-eight of the bodies were reportedly identified by their families but the rest could not be unidentified and were taken to the Health Ministry’s Forensic Medicine Unit.
“We came to Shifa Hospital escaping Israeli airstrikes. During the hospital siege, an Israeli sniper killed my 29-year-old son Mazen Abu Aita. The Israeli army took us out of the hospital and I do not know where my son’s body is. Some family members told me he was buried in a mass grave, but I do not know where he is,” said a woman named Muna Abu Aita, urging authorities to help seeking for his son.
There were a total of 160 bodies buried in the hospital garden and the process of moving them would take several days, said the Palestinian Civil Defense.
