Overview

• Galicia’s Pantón/Ribeira Sacra wildfire was declared stabilized with protective measures lifted after burning about 2,000 hectares, though crews remain for smoldering areas and reactivation risk.
• The Pico del Lobo fire in Guadalajara remains active at Level 1 with an estimated 550–700 hectares affected, and complex terrain has driven a heavy multi‑regional aerial response alongside expanding ground access.
• Overnight assessments reported minimal perimeter growth, investigators cite a lightning strike as the likely cause, and additional local ground teams have been activated as new access routes open.
• The Galician government confirmed that people affected by September fires can apply to the same aid line opened after August’s surge, while the A Fonsagrada blaze was extinguished at about 40 hectares.
• Firefighter groups and unions condemned systemic gaps in staffing, contracting and equipment, announcing demonstrations and criticizing reduced activation of resources in Guadalajara despite ongoing risk.
