当地官员表示,西班牙南部阿尔梅里亚市附近的洛斯加利亚多斯镇于周五发生野火,已造成至少12人死亡,另有8人受伤、23人下落不明。

目前野火起因尚未查明,但西班牙是受严重热浪影响的欧洲多国之一,该国南部气温最高达到近106华氏度。

野火发生地安达卢西亚大区卫生部长安东尼奥·桑斯在新闻发布会上表示,其中4名遇难者似乎“有英国血统”,因为他们所乘坐的车辆方向盘在右侧,与欧洲其他地区使用的车辆不同。

大区主席胡安马·莫雷诺在当地一档广播节目中指出,遇难者中的“大多数”为外国人,身份确认工作正在进行中。

桑斯补充说,部分遇难者是因为“自行选择了官方推荐的疏散路线之外的其他逃生路径”,最终穿过了一条“干涸河床”,而该河床最终沦为了“真正的陷阱”。

他强调,确保该地区居民安全的唯一办法是实施封锁并将他们转移,并称已有122人被安置在附近的一家剧院和一个体育中心内。

数百名应急救援人员正努力控制火势,当局称火情极为严重且令人担忧,因为该区域植被茂密。

这场野火已经烧毁了这片广袤自然区域内近7800英亩土地,火势蔓延至一条高速公路,对过往人员造成了更大的危险。

西班牙王室取消了在穆尔西亚空军与太空总学院举行的仪式上的祝酒环节,国王的女儿莱昂诺尔公主刚刚在此完成军事训练,未来将适时执掌西班牙武装力量。国王费利佩在致辞中提议为野火遇难者默哀一分钟。

当天早些时候,王室核心成员已表达了哀悼之情,称他们“深感悲痛”。

他们在社交媒体的一份声明中表示:“我们向遇难者的家属和亲友,以及所有受影响的民众表达悲痛与慰问。我们也向应急服务人员,以及所有以专业精神和奉献精神持续应对此次灾情的人们致以感谢与支持。”

At least 12 killed by wildfire in southern Spain: “Majority of them are foreigners”

At least 12 people died in a wildfire Friday in the town of Los Gallardos in southern Spain, near the popular tourist city of Almeria, authorities said. Eight more were injured and 23 were unaccounted for.

The cause of the blaze hasn’t been determined but Spain has been one of many European nations hit by severe heat waves, with temperatures peaking at almost 106 degrees in the country’s south.

Antonio Sanz, the regional health minister of Andalucia, the region where the fire raged, told a press briefing four of those who died appeared to be “of British origin” because they were in a vehicle whose steering wheel was on the right side, unlike vehicles used by the rest of Europe.

Regional President Juanma Moreno pointed out on a local radio show that “the majority” of those who were killed “were foreigners” and the process of identifying them was ongoing.

Sanz added that some of the victims lost their lives after “deciding to find a different path (out) on their own, other than the evacuation one” recommended by officials and wound up walking across a “dry riverbed” that in the end “became a real trap.”

He stressed that the only way to assure area residents were safe was to institute a lockdown and relocate them, adding that sine 122 people had been brought to a nearby theatre and a sports center.

Hundreds of emergency responders were working to contain the flames that authorities described as very serious and concerning, since they were in an area with plentiful vegetation.

The fire has consumed almost 7,800 acres of the vast natural area and reached a highway, making the situation even more dangerous for passers-by.

The Spanish Royal Family canceled their toast during a ceremony at the General Air and Space Academy in Murcia where the king’s daughter, Princess Leonor, completed her military training ahead of her taking command of the country’s armed forces at some point. During his speech, King Felipe asked for a minute of silence for the fire’s victims.

Earlier in the morning, the crown royals expressed their condolences, saying they were “deeply saddened.”

“We express our sadness and condolences to the families and loved ones of the deceased and to all those affected. We also extend our gratitude and support to the emergency services and all those who, with professionalism and dedication, continue to work to address this situation,” they said in a statement on social media.
