The fire at Générac in the Gard department destroyed several hundred hectares and claimed the life of Franck Chesneau, pilot of the Tracker 22 and an aviation firefighter with the Bouches-du-Rhône (13) SDIS.
The SICOM Urgence team (an association of firefighters who are also photographers, Ed.) was on hand to capture the tireless efforts of the large numbers of men and women who had turned out to help. Photos by Romain Bruneau, Hugo Halsouet and Lucas Domenech.
