The day opened with a large fire at a Rotterdam recycling plant, dominating NOS and RTL headlines as the Maastunnel closed and reopened. NRC's reconstruction of the deadly Ceuta run, fueled by misinformation, remained a top story, with de Volkskrant adding Moroccan-Dutch perspectives. The heatwave's economic impact was noted, with AD reporting a 4% spending drop. By afternoon, the invasive Japanese knotweed and a baby removed from a mother at an asylum center drew attention. The Italy-Spain migration rift and a drone explosion near a Bulgarian-Romanian pipeline emerged as international concerns. Evening coverage shifted to WorldPride celebrations and KLM resuming flights to Israel amid conflict. The day lacked a single dominant narrative, with multiple stories competing for editorial priority.
