Impact verdict
Medium impact. MEDIUM: An expanding multi-commune footprint with ~900 hectares burned and ~2,200 evacuees confirms a substantial wildland-urban interface event in a known Mediterranean aggregation zone, with multiple concurrent fire starts amplifying accumulation concern. However, no insured loss estimate, structure loss count, or named commercial/industrial asset involvement has been disclosed, preventing HIGH classification. Escalation to HIGH would require confirmed structure losses, major commercial asset damage, or quantified insured commercial/industrial exposure.
