Spain identifies six victims of wildfire

Six victims of one of Spain's deadliest wildfires on record have been identified, authorities said on Monday, as forensic teams continued efforts to confirm the identities of six others through DNA analysis.



The victims include a married couple from Spain and Britain.



The other identified victims are a British man and woman, a French woman and a Belgian man. All were adults.



A seventh identified victim was a 93-year-old British woman, who died in hospital on Sunday from burn injuries, bringing the death toll to 13.



Seven other people were injured in the blaze, which has scorched about 7,000 hectares.



Spain's deadliest wildfire in more than four decades trapped residents in a rugged area with scattered homes as they attempted to escape the flames on Thursday night.
