The Spanish Ministry of Agriculture ordered the confinement of all outdoor poultry farms starting Thursday to prevent avian flu, citing the notable increase in outbreaks across Central and Northern Europe and the risk posed by migratory birds heading toward Spain.France authorized the extradition of former ETA leaders Juan Antonio Olarra Guridi, Ainhoa Múgica Goñi, and Javier García Gaztelu, 'Txapote,' to Spain. They will be tried for the 2001 murder of Army Lieutenant Colonel Pedro Antonio Blanco. Txapote also faces judgment for a 1996 car bomb attack in San Sebastián.The sources also detail "early exhumations" (beginning during the Transition period) of Civil War and Francoism victims. These efforts were led by family members and neighbors (such as Felisa Casatejada in 1978) who sought a dignified burial for their loved ones, often facing threats and harassment. This movement, which included the 'operación retorno' in Navarra/La Rioja and 'exhumaciones al alba' in Extremadura, is considered the precursor to current democratic memory efforts. A new phase began in October 2000 with the professional exhumation promoted by Emilio Silva in Priaranza del Bierzo, leading to the creation of the ARMH and adopting a human rights focus. Over 17,000 bodies have been recovered since 2000.Politically, the Sánchez government anticipates a temporary relief from the pressure exerted by Junts due to the upcoming parliamentary recess extending until early 2026. Although Junts has declared the "relationship is over," they are expected to approve certain previously negotiated laws. However, the government faces immediate vulnerability if Junts aligns with the PP to pass an amendment favoring the prolongation of nuclear power plant lifespans.
