00:00Firefighters managed overnight to fully surround Belgium's largest wildfire in a century,
00:06but the situation on the ground remains complicated with several flare-ups overnight, authorities
00:12said on Wednesday.
00:13According to the crisis cell, the fire raging in the high-fence nature reserve is no more
00:19moving towards Germany, with the goal to bring it under control, court, if possible, with
00:25aerial support.
00:26Firefighters say they launched a decisive push to encircle the wildfire on Tuesday, despite
00:32wind and rain hampering air support operations.
01:01The blaze charring the vast expanse of buggy pitlands, pine trees and hiking trails spread
01:07over the weekend to some 3,000 hectares, but a hard access front towards the German border
01:14remained a concern for both authorities and some residents already under evacuation orders.
01:20If it was behind the house, it was almost no longer to breathe, and we stayed the most
01:26possible inside, because I wouldn't be able to stay outside. I had already had a little
01:31respiratory problems. And then at 16h, around 16-17h, we closed the cafe and evacuated.
01:40Europe has been swept by weeks of devastating wildfires filled by dry conditions and a historically
01:48hot summer, with France, Greece, Portugal and Spain also battling major fires.
