Over 30 people, including 10 soldiers, have been killed in the fires that started in the mountainous regions of Béjaïa and Bouïra. Around 1,500 people have been evacuated. Fire often affects Algeria in the summer months, and this year it has been exacerbated by a heatwave that has broken temperature records in several Mediterranean countries.
