The man detained over the wildfire in Ávila was using prohibited heavy machinery to clear paths in the area for several days before the blaze erupted. According to two witnesses who testified before the Guardia Civil, the individual operated the equipment despite government restrictions aimed at preventing fires during the heatwave. The testimony, obtained by El Mundo, forms part of the ongoing investigation into the incident. The accused is an operator who, according to early stages of the probe, ignored the order issued by the regional government of Castilla y León restricting the use of such vehicles due to the risk they posed under extreme weather conditions. The second person under scrutiny is the owner of the heavy machinery, who has not yet been detained. During his statement, the operator claimed he was moving the vehicle rather than operating it for work purposes. However, this explanation was refuted by subsequent witness accounts and technical assessments conducted by the Environmental Protection Service (Seprona) of the Guardia Civil. The operator’s version of events was challenged by both visual inspections of the affected zone and reports from environmental experts working with the armed forces. These findings revealed inconsistencies in his statements. The witnesses, who were called to testify shortly after the fire began, described seeing the operator using the machinery in the days leading up to the disaster in Burgohondo, Ávila. They emphasized that the activity occurred near areas already under threat from the heat. The vehicle's owner declined to give a statement, according to the same sources. Investigations by Seprona found that the operation of the heavy machinery generated sparks, which likely ignited the fire. This blaze has since consumed more than 50,000 hectares and continues to strain emergency response teams. The use of the machinery was explicitly banned in the region, and the local authorities had even announced the restriction. Despite these warnings, the individuals involved lacked proper authorization and failed to meet safety requirements, including necessary firefighting measures. Both men face charges of arson and offenses against natural resources and the environment. The case includes aggravating factors, such as the proximity of the fire to inhabited areas and its impact on ecological balance. The fire started around 1 p.m. on July 22, when the detainee was operating the unauthorized vehicle. A spark from the machinery led to rapid spread of the flames within seconds. Authorities have confirmed that the evidence gathered will be forwarded to the appropriate court and prosecutor’s office. Once the fire is fully contained, a team from the Ávila Police Judicial Department will conduct initial on-site inspections to gather further details. The investigation continues as officials seek to determine the full extent of the damage and hold those responsible accountable.
