Spanish officials said on Saturday they had evacuated more than 2,500 people from La Palma in the Canary Islands, where a wildfire has destroyed 4,500 hectares of land. Around 300 firefighters are working on the ground to bring the blaze under control. The fire coincides with a heat wave that is hitting southern Europe.
