Spanish media continued extensive coverage of the Koldo corruption scandal. Morning reports detailed deepening judicial scrutiny, with new imputations for figures like Isabel Pardo de Vera and overwhelming evidence cited against Koldo and Ábalos. Prime Minister Sánchez responded by announcing a "powerful" package of anti-corruption measures for Congress, while his government continued to navigate internal PSOE divisions. The Popular Party reinforced Feijóo's leadership, clarifying a commitment to repeat elections rather than form a coalition with Vox. A significant development in the afternoon was the European Union's decision to freeze over a billion euros in recovery funds to Spain, citing non-compliance with agreed reforms such as the diesel tax. This external financial pressure added a new dimension to the government's challenges as the corruption investigation expanded.
