Trump announces an “economic war” against Iran and threatens countries that negotiate with the regime
Given the strategic failure of the six-month military campaign and stalled diplomacy with Iran, Donald Trump’s plan to defeat the enemy now involves the economic isolation of the Islamic regime. The president announced last night what he dubbed an “economic D-Day,” a new offensive with which he aims to punish any country that helps or does business with Tehran, a measure that could provoke a new indirect confrontation with China or Russia.

Barça receives complaint from Atlético de Madrid over Julián Álvarez
Barcelona received this Thursday at the preseason stage in Birmingham the notification of the complaint filed by Atlético de Madrid to FIFA and the Federation (RFEF) because they consider that the blaugrana club tried to sign Julián Álvarez by forcing a departure for an amount lower than his release clause of 500 million euros following inappropriate procedures with a player under contract until 2030. The complaint was formalized on June 30 and Barcelona received the notification this Thursday through the RFEF, responsible for channeling this type of claims.

Pragmatic post-fascism
For Giorgia Meloni, the Ceuta crisis is not a problem. It is for Pedro Sánchez – and a serious one – but not for the Italian prime minister, who has clearly exaggerated the risk that a portion of the 8,000 immigrants still accumulating in the Spanish enclave – the vast majority of the more than 70,000 who stormed the Spanish border on July 30 and 31 immediately turned back – could end up reaching Italy. More concerning for Meloni is the constant flow of irregular immigrants who continue to arrive through the south of her country, via the central Mediterranean route: through this route, 16,454 people arrived in Europe between January and July, a number higher than those who entered through Spain combining all routes (11,537 via the Mediterranean and 2,856 via the Canary Islands), according to the latest Frontex data.

The Mediterranean surpasses the Canary Islands as the entry point for irregular migrants in small boats
The Mediterranean route is now the main entry point for irregular immigration by sea in Spain, a reversal of the situation in the Canary Islands that reflects the growing increase of the Algerian route. Until August 15, the peninsular coasts had recorded 5,152 arrivals by sea, compared to 4,808 registered in the Canary Islands. That is 344 more people, when just a year ago the situation was radically different: the Canary archipelago accumulated 11,883 arrivals compared to 3,928 on the Peninsula, according to the official statistics from the Ministry of the Interior.
Crises are hitting Europe hard

The Rhine and the Danube at their lowest flow levels and almost unfit for navigation. Forest fires in Wales, on the border between Belgium and Germany, on the beaches of Croatia.
