A fast-moving wildfire in a Mediterranean region of France near the Spanish border has left one person dead, several others injured and was still spreading Wednesday after damaging a swath of land as big as Paris overnight, authorities said.

According to Associated Press about 1,800 firefighters were fighting the blaze, which broke out Tuesday afternoon in the village of Ribaute in the Aude region, a rural, wooded area that is also home to wineries.

The wildfire remained ‘’very active” on Wednesday and weather conditions were unfavorable, the local administration said in a statement.

One person died in their home and nine others were injured, including seven firefighters, and at least one person was missing, the statement said.

It said the fire had spread for over 12,000 hectares of land, which represents a surface larger than the size of the French capital. That makes it the biggest wildfire in France so far this summer.

Residents and tourists were requested to remain confined to their homes unless an evacuation order is given by firefighters.

Two campsites have been evacuated out of precaution.

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou is expected on site on Wednesday afternoon, his office said.

Last month, a wildfire that reached the southern city port of Marseille, France’s second-largest city, left around 300 people injured.

Southern Europe has seen multiple large fires this summer. Scientists warn that climate change is exacerbating the frequency and intensity of heat and dryness, making the region more vulnerable to wildfires.
