The images recorded by the cameras of the Iryo train that crashed in Adamuz (Córdoba), collected in a new report by the Railway Accident Investigation Commission (CIAF), support the hypothesis of a rail break on the Seville-Madrid high-speed line as the cause of the derailment and subsequent collision with an Alvia, which caused the death of 46 people. From the analysis of the videos, it is “not evident”, as stated in the report accessed by La Vanguardia, that there were “anomalies” in any of the trains involved before 19:43:22 on January 18, when Iryo’s car 6 was circulating at the height “of the breaking point”.

At a time when the process of regularizing immigrants continues to pit the Government and most of the parties that support it against the PP and, above all, Vox, a report on youth reveals that young people between 15 and 29 years old believe that “Spain needs immigrants to maintain its way of life” (50%) and the number of those who think that immigrants take jobs from Spaniards is decreasing (43% in 2025, compared to 78% 20 years ago). However, the idea launched, especially by the far-right, that “we give too many facilities to immigrants” (59%) has taken hold, and 61% link their presence to an increase in crime and public insecurity.

The U.S. National Academy of Sciences has decided to retract from its scientific journal (PNAS) an article published by a group of researchers, including the Spanish Mariano Barbacid, on advances in combating pancreatic cancer, after detecting a “significant” conflict of interest.

The European Parliament is back at it, pushing to extend the “only yes means yes” rule across the entire EU. This means requiring member states to define rape based on the absence of explicit consent, rather than the use of force, following the Istanbul Convention. The plenary of the European Parliament voted on Tuesday in favor of a report to include consent in the directive on gender-based violence in EU law, something it already tried to do during the previous legislature, but which was left pending due to the refusal of some member states, led by France and Germany, who argued the EU’s lack of competence to regulate such a matter at a European level.
