Overview

  • Municipal officials report more than 100 homes affected, 202 families registered and five people treated for minor burns.
  • Thirty tents have been installed for displaced residents with more shelter expected to be added.
  • The blaze erupted on October 11 in the Virgen del Buen Pastor sector of Pamplona Alta and spread quickly through tightly packed homes as firefighters faced limited water supplies.
  • The cause remains under investigation, with early reports pointing to a detonation in a clandestine pyrotechnics workshop.
  • Survivors report thefts of belongings from damaged homes, and a viral TikTok over 100 paid ‘chaufa’ meals for firefighters drew online complaints about skimpy portions.
