The fire that started two days ago in the village of Villanueva de Viver in the city of Valencia in eastern Spain, which has been struggling with the drought that has developed due to below-average precipitation for three years, has so far burned more than 4,000 hectares of land. A total of 1,500 people living in 8 villages and towns were evacuated from their homes. Twenty aircrafts and more than 500 firefighters are struggling to get the flames under control.
Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets after Friday prayers to protest Israel’s recent attacks on the country. The largest gatherings occurred in the capital, Tehran, where demonstrators marched following prayers at Tehran University.
High-ranking officials, including Iran’s Constitutional Court head Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei and former IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, joined the protest. Participants waved Iranian, Palestinian, and resistance group flags, and trampled on Israeli and US flags laid on the ground.
Protesters held banners reading “Down with Israel”, “Down with the US”, and “The Zionist regime will be destroyed”, while chanting slogans such as “We stand behind our leader”, “Everyone who clashed with Khamenei will eventually be destroyed”, and “Our right to nuclear weapons”.
