No Madrid-Galicia train link for five days due to wildfires
Trains on the high-speed rail line between Madrid and Galicia remained suspended on Monday due to the wildfires affecting the northwest of the country, meaning there have now been five consecutive days without service.
Spain's rail infrastructure company, Adif, has confirmed that separate fires in the provinces of León, Zamora and Ourense have made the tracks dangerous.
In a statement, Renfe explained that services will not resume until the competent authorities give the go-ahead. Adif has stated that the main disruptions are occurring on the line between León and Monforte de Lemos, the line between Zamora and Sanabria, and a section of the metre-gauge line between Guardo (Palencia) and Puente Almuhey (León).
Listeria found in Brie and Camembert cheeses sold in Spain
The Ministry of Health has issued a food alert after confirming the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in several French cheeses that have already been distributed in Spain.
The products involved are Camembert du caractère Vieux Porche cheese, with an expiry date of 27 August 2025 and a weight of 250 grams, and Brie Royal Faucon cheese, with an expiry date of 1 September 2025.
In Spain, the first distributions were made in Madrid, the Basque Country and the Balearic Islands, although it cannot be ruled out that they may have been redistributed to other regions.
Two elderly men die due to heat stroke
Spain's summer heatwave has claimed two more victims, killing two elderly men from heat stroke.
A 70-year-old man died in the Virgen del Puerto de Plasencia hospital in Cáceres, Extremadura, after suffering from the effects of the heat while he was fishing.
In the town of La Rambla, Córdoba, a former town councillor, aged 77, died due to "extreme heat" while walking along a road.
Valencia tenants complain of 'property harassment'
Tenants in an inner-city building in Valencia have complained of the "property harassment" they have suffered at the hands of real estate companies trying to force them out.
The historic building, located on the corner of Calle San Vicente and Calle María Cristina, has only three of the registered eighty-six flats currently occupied.
The last four residents (three tenants in their eighties and one disabled person, according to local media Valencia Plaza) have been complaining since the beginning of last year that they were suffering "property harassment" by the company that owns the hotel, the SOCIMI Nordeste Properties, with the intention of forcing them to leave the building so it can be turned into a hotel.
This includes neglecting the upkeep of the building and sending letters to tenants informing them that their lease would be cancelled.
