As Marseille reels from early summer wildfire, France rolls back environmental protections
A wildfire that reached France's second-largest city and left 110 injured was in ‘’net regression'', after racing toward the historic Mediterranean port city, but was not yet fully extinguished. Spurred by exceptionally hot summer winds, the fire grounded all flights to and from Marseille and halted train traffic. All the while, the French government has been rolling back several notable environmental policies in 2025 and weakening regulatory commitments both domestically and within the EU. In the aftermath of the wildfire, FRANCE 24's François Picard welcomes Mathilde Ceilles, Journaliste at Le Figaro in Marseille.
