The Government has issued a fire alert for Gran Canaria while lowering the alert level to pre-alert for four other islands in the Canary Islands.
The decision comes amid ongoing concerns about the risk of wildfires given the current weather conditions. Authorities are urging residents and visitors to remain vigilant as dry weather persists.
In Gran Canaria, emergency services are on high alert to tackle any potential outbreaks quickly. Meanwhile, the four islands now at pre-alert—Tenerife, La Gomera, El Hierro, and La Palma—will continue to closely monitor the situation.
Residents are advised to avoid activities that could spark fires, and to report any incidents immediately to the authorities. The government’s move aims to safeguard both local communities and the natural environment during this critical period.
