Overview

• The blaze remains at emergency Situación 2, with the Xunta reporting roughly 1,400 hectares burned in Pantón after overnight growth.
• UME units reinforced dozens of brigades, engines, helicopters and fixed‑wing aircraft, though heavy smoke and a thermal inversion grounded flights for hours on Friday.
• Authorities evacuated at least 47 residents from Cibrisqueiros, Frontón and Budián, later adding Rosende and A Barca, and overnight moved 17 more from Abelairas, with some residents allowed to return by Saturday morning.
• The fire crossed the river Cabe into Sober, where crews focused on protecting hamlets in steep canyon terrain that complicates access and containment.
• Rail service between Lugo and Ourense remains suspended with road transfers in place, the LU‑P‑4103 is closed in sections due to smoke, and police are probing an ignition point near the railway.
