On August 21, the Valencian government's emergency services requested support from the Military Emergency Unit (UME) and raised the wildfire alert to situation 2 under the Special Forest Fire Plan for an ongoing blaze in Segorbe, Castellón. Due to heavy smoke from the fire, authorities issued an Es-Alert message ordering the confinement of residents in the nearby municipality of Gátova.

Meanwhile, broader firefighting efforts across the Iberian Peninsula showed signs of improvement overnight. Evacuees who had been displaced by separate wildfires in Riglos, Huesca, and Pinofranqueado, Extremadura, were able to return safely to their homes amid general progress on other national blazes.
