The fires in Chile: the greatest catastrophe since the 2010 earthquake: "It is the entire Chile that mourns and suffers for our dead". More than 15,000 homes burned, 112 dead and more than 200 missing.
Chile declares a state of emergency due to the forest fires that ravage the country and leave at least 10 dead. Pope Francis analyzed a moment dedicated to the Chilean tragedy this Sunday: "We pray for the dead and injured of the fires that hit central Chile." The Chilean meteorological service assured that starting Tuesday the heat and wind conditions will no longer be extreme and favor the fight against the fire outbreaks.
