    The Wider Image: Villagers struggle with aftermath of intense Iberian

    A woman fills a bucket with water as a wildfire burns, in Meda, Portugal, August 15, 2025. Although the record-breaking wildfires that ripped across Spain and Portugal in August have subsided, residents in rural communities in Spain's northwestern Galicia region are still battling the aftermath. "What happened here is crazy," said Cristina Santin, a biologist from northwestern Spain who studies fire impacts. "Suddenly you get up one day and your home region is burning on a scale that is completely unprecedented." REUTERS/Pedro Nunes SEARCH "IBERIA WILDFIRES AFTERMATH" FOR THIS STORY.
