They were in drought this summer I am not suprised
Spanish authorities have evacuated at least 800 people from the town of Gandia after a wildfire broke out, officials said on Friday.
The coastal town lies in the southeastern Valencia region.
The wildfire spread quickly due to strong winds as Storm Ciaran smashed into western Europe.
Large areas of the eastern Iberian Peninsula were on high alert for strong winds for the second day in a row.
Spain has suffered a prolonged drought in the past few years, which has contributed to the spread of wildfires.
