ESTEPONA (Spain) – Andalusia’s regional government said on Sunday two more towns would be evacuated as a wildfire continues to rage close to a popular Costa del Sol resort.
Fanned by strong winds and high late-summer temperatures, the flames have driven over 1,000 people from their homes and killed one emergency worker since they erupted on Wednesday in the mountainous Sierra Bermeja above Estepona, a Mediterranean resort favoured by British tourists and retirees.
