    Forest fires have spread across an area of about 800 hectares in Germany’s north-east, causing the fires to be declared a major incident by local authorities. A fire in the Elbe-Elster district of Brandenburg, south of Berlin, spread quickly from an initial 10 hectares, according to the German press agency (dpa). A local council statement said that heavy gusts of wind contributed to the spread of the fire, making putting out the flames considerably more challenging and sometimes impossible.
