Wildfire Threatens Edinburgh’s Arthur's Seat | Belfast News

from Belfast News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Wildfire alert in Edinburgh as flames roar on Arthur’s Seat—firefighters are locked in a multi-day battle to contain the blaze amid rising heat and unpredictable weather. This isn’t the first time the iconic hill has caught fire, and crews are stretched thin as they also battle a major wildfire still smoldering in the Cairngorms. With the cause still unknown, officials urge caution: no open flames, no barbecues, and clean up after yourself to avoid sparking disaster. Queen’s Drive remains closed, and locals are told to keep windows and doors shut. The priority? Total extinguishment before any investigation begins.
