A massive wildfire in Canada has destroyed 1,600 homes and forced 80,000 people to flee

Tens of thousands of Canadians have been evacuated while wildfires rage through their homes in Alberta.

The town of Fort McMurray has seen more than 1,600 homes destroyed and 80,000 residents flee. As of Thursday, the fire showed little sign of slowing down, Reuters reports, and it now threatens the local airport.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley said Wednesday that it was the biggest evacuation in the history of the province, according to the Associated Press.

No injuries or fatalities have been reported at the site of the fire.
