This Tuesday, while the prefecture has just announced that orange vigilance for forest fires was triggered on Wednesday, three fires broke out in forest areas in Soussans, in the Médoc, in Teste-de-Buch, on the Bassin d'Arcachon and in Landiras, near Sauternes.

All my support for the teams of firefighters deployed on La Teste.
