The meeting noted the beginning of the de-escalation of the device and the gradual withdrawal of the displaced troops from other Autonomous Communities and the French contingent mobilized through the European Civil Protection Mechanism.
A total of 583 residents from 13 different areas have returned to their homes today. The process of returning the evicted residents to their homes has been carried out in two phases throughout the day.
Early in the morning the neighbours of Santa María de la Peña (18), Salinas de Jaca (30), Villalangua (30), Larués (111), Bailo (150), Arbués (13) and Alastuey (26) returned to their homes, a total of 378 people.

Tomorrow, when temperatures are expected to drop to around 10 degrees, the fire could be described as stable, as well as the return of evacuated residents of Centenero, Ena and Botaya. STRATEGY AND DEVICE
Over the course of the day, 18 air assets have been operating in the area, and efforts have focused on the hottest area of Santa Cruz de la Serós at the moment. Lamejora, in the course of the fire, has enabled the gradual withdrawal of resources from other Autonomous Communities, including the return of French firefighters mobilised through the European Civil Protection Mechanism.
In the evening, the device will consist of 9 ground squads, 8 self-pumps and a INFOAR Advanced Command Post vehicle, an EEU section (40 soldiers and 2 bulldozers) and 3 Earth Army bulldozers, as well as regional and municipal tractors and volunteers.
Night security is covered by five Civil Guard patrols and one UPNA patrol, supported by the 061 health and social device, the Red Cross and social workers in the Hoya regions of Huesca and La Jacetania.
Following the EKZI meeting this afternoon, the Director-General of the Interior of the Government of Aragon, Miguel Ángel Clavero, stated that "the fire has remained within the established limits" and that "work has continued on some hot spots that are still appearing, but without major incidents".
The means of extinction "will continue to control the perimeter" tonight "to avoid reproductions and to extinguish those hot spots that remain inside the fire," Clavero said.
"Meteorology seems to be beginning to help us and this trend will continue on Friday and Saturday," said the Director-General, who pointed out that some media outlets, such as the French firefighters, are withdrawing at the beginning of de-escalation. "We are staying with the operation of the Basque Autonomous Community to deal with this fire."
