Hundreds of firefighters are battling to stop the spread of a fast-moving wildfire in the the Corbières hills of southern France.

The blaze burned an area the size of Paris over one afternoon and night and was still burning on Wednesday evening, making it the second biggest fire in France in 50 years.
