Five injured in anti-migrant riot in small Spanish town Madrid

Police presence was set to be ramped up in the sleepy Spanish town of Torre-Pacheco after five people were injured in far-right clashes targeting migrants, the central government said on Sunday. One person has since been arrested, Mariola Guevara, the government's representative in the Murcia region, told state broadcaster RTVE. A group of suspected right-wingers gathered in the town of some 40,000 overnight to attack migrants living in Torre-Pacheco. Police officers managed to prevent direct confrontation between the two groups, Mayor Pedro Ángel Roca said. (DPA)

Several hurt in anti-migrant unrest in Spanish town

Despite a major police presence, groups armed with batons roamed the streets looking for foreign-origin people, regional newspaper La Opinion de Murcia reported. The regional government did not say how many people were injured but stated that at least one person had been arrested for the violence. The unrest erupted after a 68-year-old man told Spanish media he was beaten up in the street on Wednesday by three youths of North African origin. The attack was filmed and put on social media. The town hall organised a demonstration on Friday that was intended to be peaceful but where far-right elements shouted anti-migrant slogans. One group, named "Deport Them Now", posted a message on social media calling for attacks against people of North African origin. Spanish authorities launched an appeal for calm on Sunday in the town of 36,000 people. "Torre Pacheco must get back to normal," said the head of the Murcian regional government Fernando López Miras in a message on X. "I understand the frustration but nothing justifies violence," added the conservative politician. "I call on residents to be calm, for tranquility," said Torre Pacheco mayor, Pedro Ángel Roca Torne, on RTVE public television. Spain's Youth Minister Sira Rego, a member of the extreme left wing party Sumar, condemned the violence against migrants in a message on Bluesky, blaming the role of the "ultra-right" in the unrest.

Another six people injured as bulls charge through Spain's Pamplona

MADRID: A futher six people were injured today as bulls were driven through the narrow streets of Pamplona for the seventh time this week, as this year's edition of the iconic, yet controversial San Fermín festival nears its close, German Press Agency (dpa) reported. The narrow, winding 800-metre course leading to the bullring saw numerous people get injured, a spokeswoman for the Red Cross told Spanish channel RTVE, citing preliminary figures. Five people were brought to hospital, including one of the bull runners who was hit by a bull's horn in the genital area, according to the spokeswoman. The latest, and penultimate bull run in the northern Spanish city saw numerous falls, as shown in the broadcast by RTVE. In two instances, bulls pushed runners out of the way using their heads, causing both the men and the animals to fall. Another runner managed to get to safety in a bend, but his red shirt was impaled by the horn of a passing bull. However, he was able to free himself after a few seconds. The festival is held in honour of the city's patron saint, San Fermín, and has been celebrated in the northern city of Pamplona every July since the late 16th century, despite the protests in recent decades of animal rights activists. Each morning at 8am for eight consecutive days, six fighting bulls and several tame oxen are driven through the old town's narrow streets to the bullring, where the evening's bullfights take place. There, the bulls are killed by matadors in traditional bullfights. The final run will take place tomorrow. The bulls' long, pointed horns can cause fatal goring injuries. Since 1924, 16 people have died during the runs. Many of the mostly male runners attempt to race in front of or alongside the six bulls, often trying to touch their horns or backs as they run.

Fati Vazquez Sparks Lamine Yamal Linkup Rumors With Unexpected Move Days After Painful Admission

Fati Vazquez Sparks Lamine Yamal Linkup Rumors With Unexpected Move Days After Painful Admission originally appeared on Athlon Sports. This week, Fati Vasquez has defended herself from online abuse about having a potential relationship with FC Barcelona sensation Lamine Yamal. The OnlyFans model assures that she doesn't want to start a scandal, but she made an unexpected move on social media, liking fan comments that hinted at a relationship with the teenage star. Images of Vasquez and Yamal together on vacation in Italy surfaced online, and it has not been received well. A few days ago, the 29-year-old model posted a statement on her Instagram about the abuse she has been receiving. Fati Vasquez: "To those who wish me harm, I wish healing—because no one who is truly well with themselves wants to destroy another." Vasquez went a step further and mentioned taking legal action after the abuse she has been receiving. She spoke with RTVE Play's La Familia De La Tele to defend herself after being attacked online. "Firstly, I'm 29; I haven't made it to the 30s yet. I haven't done anything, haven't killed anyone. The reactions are just too heavy, and it's even affecting him [Yamal]. I just spent a few days with Lamine, which is exactly what's shown in the photos. And that's it. I'm not going to say anything more, nor do I want to blow it up or make it into a scandal, because to me, it's completely unnecessary." Despite defending herself, some fans found social media interactions from the model hinting at a relationship with the Barcelona star. Just yesterday, Vasquez sparked dating rumors again with her recent social media activity. Despite not confirming a relationship with the teenage sensation, fans on Instagram and TikTok took screenshots of Vazquez hinting that the pair is dating. On TikTok, one fan wrote, "Take care of him, please," and Vazquez liked the comment. On Instagram, a fan wrote under her post, "Lamine and Fati [Vasquez] we need this." Another fan wrote, "Avoid negative comments. You too [a] good pair." Both comments were liked by the model. 29-year-old Claudia Bavel went on a Spanish TV show to talk about Lamine Yamal. The adult content actress read out messages she had with the teenager on WhatsApp. This comes after releasing a long statement on her Instagram clarifying the comments Yamal made on rejecting her in the past. Claudia Bavel: "I chose not to speak publicly on this matter in 2025. However, since Lamine Yamal mentioned our alleged relationship on TardeAR, I find it appropriate to share my version with clarity and respect." On the show TardeAR, Yamal spoke about the rumors of dating Bavel and mentioned rejecting her. Lamine Yamal: "You can ask her. She'll give you the usual excuse like: 'No, I rejected him because he's a minor…' But we never met up because I told her no." This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 21, 2025, where it first appeared.
