A fire continues to be fought in Las Peñas de Riglo, Huesca, where 1,021 people from 18 municipalities remain evacuated. The fire has destroyed over 15,000 hectares, but efforts have prevented it from reaching urban areas and the two monasteries of San Juan de la Peña. A 28-year-old man was sent to prison without bail as the alleged perpetrator of the fire.
Weather forecasts predict rain and a 5-degree temperature drop on Saturday, which may aid in firefighting efforts. Pedro Sánchez, the President of the Government, has urged caution and thanked firefighters for their tireless work.
