Deadly Portugal wildfires force new evacuations

Deadly wildfires in Portugal have forced more people to evacuate their homes as firefighters battle dozens of blazes in the north of the country. Stifling heat and strong winds have fueled the fires, resulting in five deaths including three firefighters and a volunteer. The situation remains dangerous and officials do not expect a significant reduction in the risk of fires in the next 48 hours. Civil protection authorities are working tirelessly, with support from other countries, to contain the fires and protect those affected. Evacuations are ongoing in some areas, and firefighters are facing challenging conditions in their efforts to control the blazes.
