The Mallorcan Cooperation Fund has cancelled all events planned for this Saturday to mark the Lighting of Towers, Watchtowers, and Talayots of the Mediterranean for Human Rights due to the poor weather forecast for Mallorca. The institutional event scheduled for 12:55 pm at Bellver Castle was cancelled early this morning, according to the organizers. Hours later, the event planned for 6:30 pm to capture images of the lighting ceremony from Sant Carles Castle was also cancelled. Emergency services (112) maintain an orange alert for strong winds in Mallorca, Ibiza, and Formentera, and for coastal phenomena in Mallorca and Menorca. Additionally, according to the emergency service's social media account, a yellow alert is in effect for strong winds in Menorca, and for coastal phenomena in Ibiza and Formentera.

The tenth annual Lighting of Towers, Watchtowers, and Talayots for Human Rights in the Mediterranean will take place on January 31, 2026, with the aim of making this sea "a place of life, not death," explained Maribel Arnau, the Island Director of Heritage for the Consell de Mallorca. The objective is to reaffirm the collective commitment to defending human rights and welcoming refugees, and "to highlight our heritage to remind us that these historical sites can also symbolize values we share as a society," she added.
