A wildfire that raged through the Spanish holiday island of Gran Canaria for more than a week has finally been brought under control, emergency services have said.
In a tweet, they said the blaze had been "declared controlled" by the regional government.
"Ground crew will continue to work in the area until its extinction."
The fire, which began on 17 August, had threatened several natural parks rich in biodiversity on the island off the northwestern coast of Africa.
Thousands of residents were evacuated. They have since been allowed back home.
Altogether, more than 700 firefighters and other ground crew and 14 water-dropping helicopters and planes worked on controlling the last blaze, which has destroyed 6,000 hectares, according to emergency services.
Spain flew military transport planes to Gran Canaria to send soldiers to help fight the wildfire.
As yet another blaze raged through parts of a UNESCO biosphere reserve, the head of emergency services in Gran Canaria Federico Grillo said it was "beyond our extinction capacities".
Some of the worst flames rose as high as 50 metres, preventing ground crew from getting near or water-dropping aircraft from flying above.
The centre of the island, the second-most populous of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic off the northwestern coast of Africa, is very popular with hikers.
But a large majority of tourists who visit Gran Canaria stay in beach resorts.
With its arid hot summers, Spain - the world's second tourism destination - is frequently plagued by huge forest fires.
Experts say these threaten to become more violent and frequent due to climate change.
