In Galicia, on the other hand, seven fires remain outofcontrol, all in Ourense. More than 67,500 hectares have already been burned by flames in this province, according to estimates by the Rural Environment Council .
The situation in Castilla y León has improved considerably in the last few hours, but there are still 16 major fires in force and thousands of people evacuated. All eyes are on the fires in Porto (Zamora), located in the Lake Sanabria Natural Park and north of León, which are the main sources of concern due to the evolution that is taking place.
In Asturiasthe fires are also gradually decreasing, but they still have five fires alive, two fewer than last night. In the last hours the firefighters have managed to control seven fires and report that two others are stabilized. The Degaña fire that has arrived from León is the most worrying.
