Wildfires raged across northern Spain on Thursday (17 June) as a heatwave gripped the nation.

The most concerning blaze is near Baldomar, in the Catalan province of Lleida, which has destroyed at least 500 hectares and has the potential to spread to 20,000 hectares according to the Catalan regional government.
