Overview
- An industrial fire at the Mobec recycling plant in Cuenca was brought under control after overnight efforts, with emergency teams reporting that the plant’s nave collapsed and hotspots remain burning beneath the rubble.
- Protección Civil sent an ES‑Alert to residents and local officials advised people to close windows, turn off ventilation intakes and suspend outdoor activities because smoke could reach populated areas.
- In Dénia a vegetation fire that began in the early afternoon was stabilized by mid‑afternoon after a combined aerial and ground response, about 200 residents were temporarily evacuated and police detained a man found with three lighters who is suspected of starting the blaze.
- Galician authorities declared the Vilanova de Arousa fire stabilized after it burned roughly one hectare, and nearby incidents— a 0.07‑hectare conato in Panxón and a transformer fire at the Tibo substation—were controlled without wider supply impacts.
- Regional fire brigades, Infocam, Protección Civil and local police continue hotspot monitoring, air‑quality checks and investigations into causes while warning that full extinguishment may take time and that vulnerable residents should take precautions.
