It's April 30th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Global News Today World News powered by AI. Dutch authorities evacuated Kempon Airport in southern Netherlands yesterday after a big wildfire broke out near a military training spot in Northern, Limburg Province. This busy general aviation hub had to shut down as firefighters rushed in to battle the flames. It's part of a string of fires hitting the country, including another blaze just one day earlier near a military site up north. Dry weather has sparked these hot spots, with crews working hard to contain them both. Local safety teams reported no major injury so far, but the evacuations disrupted flights and training activities around those areas. Folks in the region aren't high alert given how close these fires got to key spots. Investigators from the National Jindarmory are digging into what started them, but it's too soon to connect the dots to military exercises happening. After by when they ignited, with weeks of no rain making this one of the driest April's
on record, officials warn wildfire risks will stick around until the weather turns. Stay tuned as they get this under control.
