Active fires in Iran
Satellites detected 453 thermal hotspots in Iran in the last 24 h, grouped into 110 fire clusters. 1 cluster reached an intense fire radiative power above 100 MW.
The most active fire is 36 km NNE of Khorramshahr with 23 detections and a peak of 129 MW, last seen Mon 1:20 am local time.
By region, Khuzestan has 33 clusters (222 detections), Fars has 22 clusters (123 detections), Isfahan has 6 clusters (20 detections).
Fires are assigned to the country of the nearest listed city, so a fire close to a border can appear under the neighbour.

Official information
The Global Wildfire Information System, GWIS (gwis.jrc.ec.europa.eu), maps fire danger and burnt areas worldwide; evacuation orders come from national civil protection and local authorities.
Satellite thermal hotspots are not all wildfires: gas flares, steel works, volcanoes and planned agricultural or prescribed burns show up too. VIIRS passes over most places about twice a day, so a fire can start or grow between passes, and thick smoke or cloud can hide one.
