Two people have died in a wildfire that swept through Spain’s Catalonia region, as emergency services reported the blaze was largely contained despite warnings of further wind.
The inferno, which erupted in a farming area of Torrefeta on Tuesday afternoon, devastated several farms and scorched an area stretching approximately 40 kilometres (25 miles). Firefighters confirmed there were no other casualties from the incident.
Authorities are bracing for Wednesday, with forecasts indicating potential for strong winds and thunder, which could complicate containment efforts.
