At least 12 people have died and 23 are missing after a massive wildfire swept through southern Spain. Officials said four of the victims are believed to be British. The fire broke out near Los Gallardos in the Andalusia region and forced hundreds of people to leave their homes. Emergency teams continued to battle the blaze, which officials described as the region's worst wildfire. "If the wind picks up again, things could get complicated," a local mayor said. Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire as search and rescue operations continue in the affected areas.
