A firefighter from the Military Emergency Unit (UME) has died this Sunday in an accident while assisting in the firefighting efforts of the Las Peñas de Riglos fire, in Huesca.
Julián Álvarez is not here. Lewandowski and Ferran Torres are history. And the casting for the number nine at Barcelona is still open. But the team of Hansi Flick certainly has goals. They demonstrated it at St. Jakob-Park, in the 5-2 win against Basel through a true feast of team-made goals, just as Flick likes. Adeyemi made his debut and also assisted Hamza Abdelkarim. Lamine Yamal dressed as a seasoned professional to convert a penalty, and Jesse Bisiwu, that prodigious 18-year-old youth whom some compare to the new Dembélé (although his role models are Brazilians like Neymar or Raphinha) and for whom Barça paid 8.5 million to Bruges, proved Deco right. He scored a double as spectacular as it is hard to forget.
The Partido Popular raised its tone this Sunday against the Government’s management following the migration crisis at the end of July in Ceuta. And taking advantage of Mónica García’s visit to Ceuta, its Deputy Secretary of Autonomous and Local Coordination, Elías Bendodo, has called for the resignation of the Minister of Health, whom he has pointed out as “responsible” for the “healthcare collapse” that, according to his party, the autonomous city is suffering. An “emergency” categorically denied by the minister, who has placed the complications on the street and not in the healthcare centers.

The late Marisa Paredes was the only Spaniard who could boast such an honor.

Since Donald Trump returned to the White House, a little over a year and a half ago, the United States has managed to control the Western Hemisphere, through military and political means, one of the ambitions stated in the National Security Strategy, published in December 2025, which emphasized that the American continent should be the sphere of influence of the United States and that any “foreign interference” should be expelled, in a clear reference to the persistent influence of China in Latin America.
The Minister of Health, Mónica García, denied this Sunday that Ceuta is suffering a healthcare collapse following the massive arrival of migrants recorded at the end of July, although she acknowledged that there are areas “especially strained” such as Emergency, Internal Medicine, or surgical wards. In response to the PP’s request to declare a health emergency, the Minister of Health made a clear distinction between three realities that, in her opinion, should not be confused: “There is no healthcare collapse. Is there a humanitarian crisis? Yes. Is there a public health risk right now derived from the overcrowding of people? Yes.”
