The demand for COVID-19 vaccines and the need for negative PCR tests for travel have fueled a black market for pandemic-related products. An investigation by laSexta revealed the sale of fake PCR certificates and vaccines on the dark web, with prices ranging from $22 for a PCR certificate to $500 for stolen vaccines from the UK government. Payment is often made in bitcoin to avoid tracking. The difficulty in detecting fake certificates lies in the varying formats issued by different countries, as explained by Diego Alejandro of the Cybercrime Unit.

Pontedeume residents have been without potable water for eight days due to the river's turbidity and metallic sediments. Faucets installed on the promenade serve as a temporary solution, and the local council offers a free home delivery service for those unable to fetch water. The hospitality industry sees increased expenses, but some, like Pachi, benefit from higher mineral water sales. With the Christmas season approaching, shellfish harvesters are concerned. The Xunta de Galicia plans to invest 1.5 million euros to address the issue and upgrade the water treatment plant. Although the water now looks clear, health authorities have not yet approved it for consumption.

Jorge Romance criticizes the Spanish Government's disregard for the Aragonese language and the cultural genocide it represents. Despite the lack of official support and the mockery from politicians like Gustavo Alcalde, Romance emphasizes the resilience of the Aragonese speakers who have kept the language alive through civil society efforts. He references a minimal language law passed under Marcelino Iglesias that recognized language rights, which is now under threat. Romance calls for continued activism to ensure the survival and normalization of the Aragonese language, citing UNESCO's stance on public support for language development.

The Parliament of Catalonia has passed a resolution to conduct a popular consultation on statehood, primarily in the next legislature following the November 25 elections. The resolution, which does not specify a date or type for the consultation, was supported by CiU, ERC, ICV-EUiA, Solidaritat, socialist Ernest Maragall, and Joan Laporta, while the Partido Popular and Ciutadans voted against it, and the PSC abstained. The session ended with the singing of the Catalan anthem, Els segadors, and a demonstration outside the Parliament by supporters of the 'right to decide'.

The Government of Aragon, led by the PP-PAR coalition, has drafted a new language law to replace the one from 2009, avoiding the terms 'Aragonese' and 'Catalan' and instead referring to 'linguistic modalities.' The draft law, presented by Culture Minister Dolores Serrat, has been criticized for not guaranteeing the teaching of Aragonese and Catalan and for the potential creation of an Aragonese Language Academy with politically appointed members. Opposition parties, linguistic experts, and language associations have expressed strong disapproval, framing the proposal as a regressive move and a disrespect to speakers of Aragonese and Catalan.
