Spanish premier blames arsonists for deadly wildfires

Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said Monday that arsonists were to blame for most of the deadly wildfires raging in northwestern Spain which have so far killed three people and injured dozens. Rajoy, who is from Galicia, said a major fire broke out near the town in the early hours of Sunday in five different locations at the same time. At one point Sunday there were over 125 wildfires raging across Galicia, compared with the previous record of 50 simultaneous blazes back in August, when temperatures were much higher, Rajoy said.
