Overview

• After reactivation Saturday and a rapid escalation to IGR 2, the Castromil fire in Zamora was reduced to IGR 1 overnight and the village confinement was lifted, with roughly two aircraft and more than 20 ground resources working on Sunday morning.
• In Ourense, the wildfire in Casaio (Carballeda de Valdeorras) remained active with provisional estimates above 500 hectares, as strong gusts complicated containment and a large deployment of brigades, bulldozers, helicopters and planes continued.
• Operational updates cited sustained winds near 20 km/h with gusts above 40 km/h that fanned flames and constrained suppression efforts across several fronts.
• Galicia authorities began emergency wildlife support, distributing 34,000 kilos of hay and cereals, including about 24,000 kilos delivered by helicopter to hard-to-reach refuges.
• Investigations into the latest ignitions are ongoing, with officials noting some recent fires in the region were set intentionally while other causes are still being probed.
