A forest fire in Las Peñas de Riglos, Huesca, has burned over 10,000 hectares since Monday, August 12. On Friday, authorities evacuated 19 children and five adults from a camp in Anzánigo as a precautionary measure due to the advancing flames.

Simultaneously, the emergency response has faced internal criticism regarding the prioritization of cultural heritage. Adrián Pastor, a technician in emergency and civil protection, publicly condemned the efforts to rescue artifacts from the Monastery of San Juan de la Peña, describing the operation as shameful and poorly managed, while noting that the personnel involved were following orders.
