17,000 people evacuated from Manitoba due to wildfires

Amir Hagag The Canadian province of Manitoba has witnessed the largest evacuation in its modern history, with more than 17,000 people evacuated as of Wednesday due to wildfires. Radio Canada International reported Thursday that with global warming, Canada is increasingly affected by extreme weather events, including massive wildfires in recent years. Canada experienced its worst wildfire season in 2023, it noted. "This is the largest evacuation in modern history for Manitoba," Premier Wab Kaneau declared, declaring a state of emergency across the region. He noted that military aircraft would be deployed "soon" to assist in evacuating residents in remote areas. Nearly 200,000 hectares of forest were affected last month, three times the annual average for the region. Canada is currently experiencing 134 active fires burning across several provinces, including Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies
