"Chile Wildfires: Devastation and Disappearance"

Hundreds of people are missing as wildfires continue to devastate Chile's Valparaíso region, with more than 120 people killed and thousands of homes burned down. President Gabriel Boric declared it the worst catastrophe since the 2010 earthquake, as the fires, fueled by an unusual heat wave, engulfed seaside towns and hillside communities. The government has imposed a state of emergency, with efforts focused on saving lives, while volunteers provide aid to those who have lost their homes. Authorities are investigating whether the fires may have been started deliberately.
