Thousands of people in western Canada are facing the wrath of wildfires this week amid severe drought.
Some six thousand people were told to evacuate Fort McMurray, Alberta, where 90,000 residents were forced to flee during the 2016 wildfires.
More than 3,000 others were ordered to leave Fort Nelson, British Columbia, where a fire is burning 2.5km (1.5 miles) from the town.
Shifting winds are now expected to push wildfires away from Canada’s major oil producing region.
