South Korea Battles Worsening Wildfires, Orders New Evacuations

Wildfires Prompt Evacuations in South Korea

On March 25, 2025, wildfires expanded in South Korea's southeast region, threatening a world heritage site and forcing thousands more residents to evacuate their homes. The fires have devastated over 36,300 acres, resulted in four deaths, and injured at least 11 people. Strong, dry winds have hampered firefighting efforts, and authorities have elevated the alert level to "serious." The Prime Minister has pledged maximum efforts to contain the fires and emphasized the importance of public vigilance. Some fires are suspected to have been caused by human error.
