Impact verdict
Low impact. Loss pathway: Mediterranean wildfire with mass evacuation of 3,000+ and three campgrounds affected near a populated tourist coast. Evidence: No commercial or industrial insured asset losses, no economic loss estimates, and no infrastructure disruption beyond campgrounds have been reported. New sources reinforce the ~2,000 firefighter response figure and the Mediterranean / Perpignan geography, but provide no additional insured-loss evidence. Limit: Without named commercial exposure, area burned figures, or industrial/utility impact the event remains below a market-moving threshold; escalation requires evidence of urban fringe spread or named insured asset damage.
