Wildfires spread across southwest Europe as Britain prepares for 'extreme heat' • FRANCE 24

Southwest Europe baked under sweltering temperatures on Friday for a fifth day, with the heat sparking devastating wildfires, forcing the evacuations of thousands and ruining holidays.

Spontaneous combustion is an amazing thing. When plants get really dry, they start sparking, slight dry wind charges them up and they start static sparking, then whoof! Amazing it is.

I wonder if they will be condemned for this like Australia was?

The research nuclear reactor IR-100 is located on the territory of Crimea (at Sevastopol State University). With a capacity of 200 kW. The fuel is uranium. The coolant is desalinated water. Since 2014, the reactor has been shut down, but the IAEA continues to consider it a nuclear facility. Thus, Kiev's threats to hit the Crimea with American HIMARS complexes should be considered as an attempt at nuclear terrorism. Has there been a nuclear catastrophe in Europe for a long time?

Thanks China🇨🇳 for continued
- *building* more and more coal-fired power plants, and
- *burning* more and more fossil fuel.
