The Gifford fire has rapidly spread after firefighters contained the Madre fire. Together, the two blazes have already burned over 100,000 acres.

The Gifford fire, which has been fueled by dry conditions and warm weather, has spread to two counties, officials said.

The Gifford fire has scorched more than 30,000 acres in less than two days in Los Padres National Forest as firefighters struggle to quell the blaze in the Sierra Madre mountains.

More than 120 firefighters were trying to extinguish a blaze at an oil depot in the Russian city of Sochi that was sparked by a Ukrainian drone attack, regional Governor Veniamin Kondratyev said early on Sunday on the Telegram messaging app.

The fire in Grand Canyon National Park has grown to more than 100,000 acres amid dry weather and a weak monsoon season in Arizona.

The Dragon Bravo Fire, ignited by lightning around July 4, has become the largest wildfire in the continental United States in 2025.

Firefighters were engaged in suppression efforts as the containment of the Dragon Bravo Fire held, but were expected to be challenged.
