A deadly wildfire raging in southern Spain has produced terrifying images of landscapes being destroyed, leaving at least 12 people dead and 23 missing.
While wildfires are common in Spain, parts of France and in the Mediterranean, experts are warning that disasters like the blaze in Almería could pose a threat to the UK as well.
They have urged Britain to come to terms with a new reality, where such fires are far more common than they used to be.
At the beginning of this month, the Peak District smouldered as a wildfire burned across Tintwistle Moor.
It is estimated the fire covered roughly 200 hectares, including Dove Stone RSPB nature reserve in Peak District National Park, with firefighters, local land managers and volunteers tackling the blaze for more than a week.
