Firefighters are battling a severe wildfire in the New Forest for a seventh day, after millions of people received an emergency alert for fires on Friday evening.
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service’s assistant chief fire officer Rob Cole said: “I’m pleased to say we are getting on top of this. However, there are many days of work ahead of us to ensure that this fire doesn’t spread when the wind blows or when other hotspots start to occur.”
