The Spanish government is maintaining its aerial firefighting resources despite encouraging developments in Madrid and Ávila, where some evacuees are returning home and no new fires have ignited. Officials expressed optimism regarding the situation but cautioned that the return of a heatwave, expected to last at least five days, demands “maximum precaution.” The government anticipates receiving seven new amphibious firefighting planes “in the coming years” to bolster capabilities. While current conditions appear stable, the prolonged high temperatures pose a significant risk of renewed outbreaks. Authorities are urging citizens to remain vigilant and adhere to safety guidelines. The focus remains on preventing new fires during this period of heightened vulnerability.
