Marta García grabs a shining silver in the 5,000m at the European Championship

Sensational. Spectacular. In April, she couldn’t even run. A lumbar ailment had sent her to the stretcher and she couldn’t train. Excessive gym workouts had short-circuited her preparation and she was theoretically out of shape. But she is a top competitor. A wonderful athlete who inaugurated the Spanish medal tally at the European Championships in Birmingham. Marta García from León (28 years old), a trained doctor, earned her doctorate again by winning silver in the 5,000 meters final with a time of 15m39s98. Two years ago in Rome, she won bronze and this time she climbed one step higher. As in 2024, at the very top was the untouchable Italian Nadia Battocletti (15m37s84), who defended her title. “You had to believe it like in the Football World Cup and I believed it. Everything went as I wanted, I gave the maximum I could. I was always where I had planned to be during the race,” García said. Behind her, the bronze medal went to the Italian Micol Majori (15m40s65).

The advisory body sees the entirety as compliant with the framework of the Statute and the Spanish Constitution. The law is being processed in the Parliament, which is inactive until the end of September.

The case of the luxury penthouse in Chamberí acquired by the Community of Madrid has experienced in recent hours a qualitative leap that tightens the seams of the regional Government presided over by Isabel Díaz Ayuso. What began as a first-rate political controversy due to shadows of opacity and the changing explanations from Puerta del Sol has formally entered the courts, after the head of the Court of Instruction number 8 of Madrid, magistrate Rosario de Fátima Espinosa, has opened preliminary proceedings in relation to five complaints focused on the purchase of a property worth 6.3 million euros executed by a Madrid public company.

It came weeks after a much deadlier tragedy on the west coast of Caracas, when two earthquakes separated by just 39 seconds collapsed buildings and left a death toll that today is around 6,000.
