11.08.2026 ⇢ The Day Colombia's Quake Toll Rose to 240
⌨

The earthquake in Colombia remained the dominant story, with the death toll climbing throughout the day from 132 to 240. Morning headlines focused on rescue efforts and the declaration of a national disaster, while by afternoon the toll had risen sharply, with 164 Spaniards still unaccounted for. The quake was framed as the first major test for new president Abelardo De la Espriella.

The Ceuta migrant crisis persisted as a secondary focus. Foreign Minister Albares visited Ceuta, vowing that all migrants would be returned to Morocco and warning against further crossings. Reports highlighted preparations for a feared mass entry on August 15, with Interior and Defense on alert. Political tensions continued, with the PP using the Senate to pressure the government over the crisis.
