Fire in Peru
Forest fires have broken out in Peru, burning more than 3,000 hectares (11.58 square miles) of cultivated land and natural areas.
22 of Peru's 24 regions have been impacted, with Cuzco, Cajamarca, Huancavelica, and Huánuco being the worst affected areas. Reports say that the fires were caused by human activity. However, weather conditions such as clouds, smoke, and winds have helped spread the fires and also obstructed aircraft operations needed to fight the fires.
Numerous wildfires have started in Peru since July 2024, resulting in 15 fatalities, 98 injuries, and affecting more than 1,800 people.
