Barcelona: Barcelona's Metro Line 1 resumed normal service on Tuesday after an overhead power line fire left 137 people needing medical attention in northeastern Spain, according to the Catalan Emergency Medical Service (SEM).

According to Anadolu Agency, the fire broke out between the El Clot and Glories stations during the evening rush hour on Monday, prompting passengers to evacuate and causing services on the affected section of the line to be suspended. SEM reported that it treated 137 people, with 131 sustaining minor injuries and six in less serious condition. Fortunately, none of those affected were in life-threatening condition.

The emergency agency deployed 24 ambulances and transferred 39 individuals to hospitals and urgent care centers across Barcelona. Metro operator Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB) confirmed that L1 service had returned to normal along its entire route, except for the section between Florida and Placa de Sants, which remains closed due to previously scheduled infrastructure improvement works. Authorities have not yet announced the cause of the fire.
