Footage captured by drones shows the devastation caused by forest fires in the area of La Vilavella, where the fire has left a completely scorched landscape.

The fires affecting the province of Castellón have caused the destruction of more than 8,500 hectares of land. The severity of the situation has been reflected in the aerial recordings made over the affected area.
The current climatic context, marked by record-breaking heatwaves, is intensifying the virulence of the fires. According to experts, rising temperatures and drought, exacerbated by climate change, make it easier for forest fires to spread faster and cause greater destruction.
