The Ceuta migration crisis sinks Spanish tourism to Morocco
The migration crisis in Ceuta and the role of Morocco have sunk tourist demand from Spain to the North African country. The sector is seeing a sharp drop in bookings for the last quarter of the year, as well as cancellations of already booked trips. Carlos Abella, secretary general of the Tourism Board, estimates cancellations of up to 80% for September, a high season month in Morocco. “The situation is very complicated, both in the short and medium term,” he says.
The trompe-l’œil of the photo of Pedro Sánchez without legs in La Mareta
The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, held a videoconference yesterday with four of his ministers regarding the situation in Ceuta from his summer break at the La Mareta estate in Lanzarote, and from La Moncloa a video and a photograph of the moment were sent to the media. The fact is that the still image of the episode distributed by the EFE agency has raised some controversy because the head of the Executive’s legs are not visible below the desk in his office while he speaks addressing the ministers who appear on a screen.
The Parliament calls for the dismissal of Trapero and Parlon for infiltrating the Mossos in a teachers’ assembly
The opposition groups already demanded a few days ago in the Interior commission of the Parliament the dismissal of the councilor of the department, Núria Parlon, and the general director of the Police, Josep Lluís Trapero, for infiltrating agents of the Mossos d’Esquadra in a teachers’ assembly within the framework of the protests of the educational sector, an act for which both leaders apologized to the representatives of the teachers.
Sánchez: “More than 170,000 hectares have already burned and half of the summer is still ahead”
The Government has declared this Tuesday the territories affected by a total of 211 catastrophic episodes, mostly due to forest fires, that have occurred between March 31 and July 27, 2026, and that have caused damage in regions of fourteen autonomous communities, including Catalonia, as areas affected by a civil protection emergency.

Deny the evidence
For more than two weeks the Government showed its inflexible face in the face of the flood of migrants arriving in Ceuta. It was assumed that the priority was to seal the border and this required securing the cooperation of Morocco and warning those who intended to enter illegally that…
Neighbors of Muntaner ask the City Council to evict the apartment taken over by drug addicts
The neighbors of a building on Muntaner Street at the height of Mallorca Street are asking the Barcelona City Council to facilitate as soon as possible the eviction of a home taken over by people with serious drug problems who are making their lives miserable.

Melania reappears amid crisis over Trump’s closeness to a young advisor

France, on the road to the precipice
Emmanuel Macron emerged in 2017 as a political anomaly in France. And he is on track to end up the same way. The French president managed to be elected by making his way against all odds between the two major political forces at the time: the Socialist Party (PS), whose government he had been part of as Minister of Economy under the presidency of François Hollande, and The Republicans (LR), the latest brand of the Gaullist movement, whose last two presidents had been Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy. It was a radical shift in axis.
