Overview

  • On July 2 at around 19:45, an unoccupied textile warehouse in Mas de l’Oli, Manises erupted in flames, mobilizing nine Consorcio de Bomberos crews and three command units.
  • Firefighters contained the Manises blaze without any injuries and prevented the fire from spreading to nearby buildings.
  • Investigators suspect an electrical fault sparked the Manises fire at a facility that had been closed for over a year but still stored products.
  • On July 3, a sheet-metal workshop in Badalona’s Can Ribó industrial park caught fire, activating twelve Bombers de la Generalitat units.
  • The Badalona blaze was stabilized in under two hours, destroying the workshop and causing a partial collapse without endangering adjacent structures or injuring workers.
