"Every day that Asra goes to school, I am very happy…", says Anita with a broken voice, and she can no longer continue the sentence because she bursts into tears. Asra is the 13-year-old daughter who this year has completed the second year of ESO. If they had stayed in Afghanistan, if they had not been able to flee, Asra would now be confined to her home and would not have been able to start secondary education, because the Taliban have prohibited girls from studying from the age of 12. “In Afghanistan I have my sister, my nieces, my sister-in-law… They are there, unable to do anything”, laments Anita, who tries to compose herself while wiping away her tears. “Here we are fortunate”. That is why she does not miss any opportunity to work, study, get to know new places or even play football. She wants to enjoy every moment of her freedom. Because that is what she values most about being here: freedom.

About forty people were evacuated early this morning due to a fire that broke out in a building under construction on Aprestadora street, in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat. The Generalitat Firefighters received the alert at 3:48 a.m. and, upon arrival, found the building with a large accumulation of material and debris.

At half past seven in the evening the last plane with Afghan refugees evacuated by Spain landed at the air base in Torrejón de Ardoz (Madrid). They are the last ones and they leave a landscape of despair and destruction after the attacks that Thursday left about two hundred dead and the uncertainty of what will happen now with the Taliban government. Most European countries have also completed the evacuation of their Afghan personnel and collaborators, while the United States will meet the deadline of 31 August to finish moving all its military equipment and troops that are still deployed.
