A fast-moving wildfire in southern Spain killed at least 12 people, with 19 still missing. Victims were burned in their cars as roads became death traps during evacuation attempts.
People died because they couldn't escape fast enough. The fire moved faster than evacuation could happen, turning roadways into killing zones. This is the direct result of extreme heat creating fire conditions that outpace human reaction time. As temperatures continue to soar across southern Europe, this pattern is likely to repeat.
