Devastation on Wheels: The Unforeseen Consequences of a Single Van Fire The New Forest national park, a haven for rare species and an internationally protected ecosystem, has been ravaged by a single van fire that left more than 20 vehicles abandoned on the side of the road.
Firefighters are still battling to contain the blaze, which began on Sunday and has already scorched over a square kilometre of heathland.
The scale of destruction is staggering, with Forestry England confirming that the fire was under control but would continue for several days.
