On August 25, a brush fire broke out in the Collserola sierra near Barcelona, prompting a deployment of firefighters and generating a large column of smoke. The resulting smoke forced municipal authorities to order the preventive confinement of two Barcelona neighborhoods, Torre Baró and Ciutat Meridiana, as the fire advanced near the Canyelles area.

Simultaneously, amidst the ongoing wildfire activity, UGT General Secretary Pepe Álvarez called for a nationwide State pact against forest fires in Spain. Speaking on the same day, Álvarez also urged authorities to improve the working conditions of forest firefighters in regions such as Castilla, characterizing their current employment as precarious.
