Last night, the Montuïri Town Council unanimously approved awarding the honorary title of Mayor of Puig 2026 to Maria Antònia Rigo Gallard for her career and contribution to the educational, social, civic, and cultural improvement of the municipality. Maria Antònia Rigo is a teacher with a renowned passion for teaching and the pursuit of new pedagogical approaches in schools. She has been the principal of the CEIP Climent Serra i Servera school in Porreres, where she currently teaches. However, her impact on Montuïri extends far beyond the classroom: the official document highlights her "unparalleled dedication and commitment to numerous local associations." This award, traditionally presented by the Town Council on behalf of all citizens, recognizes those who have made significant contributions to the betterment of the municipality throughout their lives.

The Mallorcan activists of the Sumud Global Flotilla expelled from Israel have denounced on Monday night upon their arrival in Madrid that they have suffered "torture" during their detention and have warned that one of their companions, The Mallorcan Reyes Rigo has not yet returned to Spain"Not everyone is here. Reyes Rigo is missing. We're worried about our colleagues who have been left behind. We won't stop until they're released," stated the coordinator of Podemos Islas Baleares, Lucía Muñoz, to the television cameras waiting for them at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport.

Lucía Muñoz, Palma City Councilor and Podemos coordinator in the Balearic Islands; Alejandra Martínez, activist and communications specialist; and Reyes Rigo, activist and healthcare worker, were selected to embark on August 31st on the Global Sumud Flotilla, an international civil society initiative that will include more than 50 boats and representatives from over 44 countries. The fleet, which will depart from Barcelona for Gaza, will be the largest collective effort by the international solidarity movement with Palestine to break the blockade on Gaza and will include sailors, healthcare workers, legal experts, and activists from around the world, including actress Susan Sarandon, Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, and the Brazilian actor.

Rosalía explained in a message on social media this Wednesday that not having spoken out about Palestine "doesn't mean at all that I don't condemn what's happening," but she regrets that "the blame should be directed upwards (towards those who make decisions and have the power to act)."
