Impact verdict

Low impact. Current evidence supports a low insured-loss view. Reporting confirms an active wildfire response and later mop-up operations, but the supplied sources do not provide a public damage inventory, insured-loss estimate, or verified structure-loss list for the Vouzela front. Burned-area and casualty references in the broader outbreak remain inconsistent across reporting, so there is still no source-grounded route to a market loss above USD 100m on present evidence.
