Overview

• Protección Civil reports a marked improvement in the past 24 hours, with 12 fires in situation 2, two in situation 1, six stabilized and six controlled, and cautions that winds remain the main obstacle.
• The Igueña (Fasgar) fire in León is the most serious after wind reactivations overnight; efforts prioritized protecting Tremor de Arriba, while Porto (Zamora) stays active but contained within defense lines.
• Galicia’s situation eased to two active incidents (A Pobra do Brollón and Avión) after major fronts were controlled, as King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia met responders and residents in Ourense.
• Asturias moves to stabilize all active fires except Ibias, and authorities say most of Wednesday’s 14 preventive evacuations are being reversed; total summer evacuations reach 35,691, with three roads still closed in Castilla y León.
• The Government approved a decree to harmonize regional wildfire plans as Senate hearings stoked partisan clashes, and groups called a Friday protest outside the Castilla y León parliament to demand dismissals over fire management.
