Residents evacuated in the Tenerife fire have returned to their homes. The Ministry of Public Administrations, Justice and Security of the Government of the Canary Islands, through the General Directorate of Security and Emergencieshas announced the end of the evacuation in the Camino del Madroño area, in Los Realejos, which was the only nucleus that remained evacuated as a result of the fire and that affected about 40 neighbors.
The end of the evacuation occurs due to the fact that the area affected by the forest fire in the vicinity of the limit zone of the Tigaiga hillside has not advanced in recent hours, that the fire control lines that were established are effective and due to the fact that the execution of technical fire control maneuvers that could generate risk situations is not foreseen.
The relocated people can return to their homes after 3:00 p.m. following the instructions of the security forces and bodies and the owners of pets and/or livestock can return with them. It is recommended that it be done during the day.
