"Mass Evacuations and Flight Caps: Canada's Northwest Territories Battle Wildfires"

Residents of Yellowknife, Canada, are rushing to evacuate the city by air and road as a wildfire approaches. Long queues have formed at the airport, with hundreds of passengers being turned away from packed flights. The main highway is also experiencing heavy traffic, and officials fear it could be cut off as the fire gets closer. The evacuation was ordered due to concerns that the road could be blocked before the fire reaches the city. Nearly 7,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes in other parts of the Northwest Territories, and wildfires are raging across western Canada in the country's worst season on record.
