The victim, a 33-year-old transgender woman of Honduran origin, received several stab wounds to the chest, arms, and neck, injuries that proved fatal.

Increasing unease over the Ebola outbreak in the heart of Africa. The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) expressed today his “deep concern” over the “speed and magnitude” of the epidemic that emerged on April 24 in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of Congo and has already recorded cases in highly populated cities such as Goma, the capital of North Kivu province, and even in the capital of neighboring Uganda, Kampala.
Pedro Almodóvar returned this Tuesday to the Cannes festival to compete for the Palme d’Or with Bitter Christmas, seven years after Pain and Glory, and the reception could not have been more emotional. “I am speechless, very moved. It is difficult to speak in this situation, but I recognize that of all the audiences I know from the screenings of my films, the viewers in this great hall are, I believe, the warmest and most affectionate I have ever known,” he said with great emotion after the screening of his new work in the grand Lumière theater.
Donald Trump’s schedule indicated that this Tuesday morning he had “executive time” and “two political meetings,” all closed to the press. But it is clear that the vocation of real estate promoter is part of the genetic code of the President of the United States, so he found time to take journalists on a tour of the construction of his ballroom.
This is Donald Trump’s pendulum, which as soon as he threatens the total destruction of Iran, he backtracks saying that the negotiations are going well. This Tuesday, explanations were required for the decision to halt the new initiative to bomb the Middle East enemy.
Russia began training exercises for its nuclear forces this Tuesday.

After signing the first budget agreement with the Government of Salvador Illa, the president of Esquerra Republicana, Oriol Junqueras, has defended the pact reached because it fulfills -in his opinion- a “double function.” On one hand, because it resolves the “everyday problems” of Catalonia with budget allocation and, on the other, because it provides the opportunity to “achieve more powers and tools in favor of the country.”
The agreement signed by President Salvador Illa and the leader of ERC, Oriol Junqueras, is no longer just for the 2026 budgets, but is focused on 2027 and beyond. De facto, this agreement will allow for the resources and political stability sufficient to complete the Catalan legislature – which expires in the summer of 2028 – but will serve as a planning tool for a few more years. At the same time, this agreement reaffirms the Government’s link with its main ally, since the signed document ratifies some of the most relevant investiture agreements, such as special financing, IRPF collection, airport management, or the cancellation of the FLA debt.
Jonathan Andic grew up within Mango long before occupying an office at the top of the group. He was the eldest son of Isak Andic, the founder who built one of the largest European fashion empires from Catalonia, but those who dealt with him in those years remember a discreet executive, more comfortable in creative and product teams than on the corporate front line. He studied Audiovisual Communication in the United States and later completed his training with an MBA at IESE, before formally joining the family business in 2005.
