Renfe rail staff are scheduled to conduct 24-hour national strikes across Spain on June 29 and July 15. The strike has been called by Sindicato Ferroviario over concerns regarding the future of Renfe Mercancías, the state owned freight railroad. The strikes are expected to affect rail services nationwide, including cancellations and delays, affecting both passenger and freight operations.

El Encierro, or the Running of the Bulls, takes place daily at 8:00 AM from July 7-14 during the San Fermín Festival. Despite the cultural significance, the event is widely regarded as highly dangerous. Participants can face serious risks, including trampling, goring, falls, and collisions in narrow, fast-moving streets where reaction time is extremely limited. The event is expected to draw heavy crowds, disrupt local travel, and prompt an increased security presence.
