AI disclosure
Summary
A fast-moving wildfire that has so far scorched about 800 hectares of the Fontainebleau forest southest of Paris may have been "intentionally set", French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said Monday. The fire prompted France to deploy two firefighting Canadair planes from the country's south as crews battled to contain the blaze, the first time such aircraft have been used in the greater Paris region.
