Three Portuguese firefighters have died in one of dozens of forest blazes ravaging the country, bringing the death toll from the recently erupted wildfires to seven people since Saturday, authorities said. Portugal is fighting more than 50 active wildfires on its mainland and has mobilised about 5,300 firefighters, as well as calling for European Union help.
