Italy: Giorgia Meloni said she welcomed with great satisfaction that Switzerland, as communicated by President Guy Parmelin, is waiving reimbursement of the medical expenses of the Italian injured from Crans-Montana, so no cost will fall on the families or on Italy. 3. United Kingdom: The Planning Inspectorate explained the expedited Part 1 process, enforcement journeys with lead and linked appeals, two step statement submission, user management and the duty to remove personal data before uploading documents to the Manage your appeals service. 4. International: Po Ya Lin, a woman of Chinese origin captured in Bogotá on September 17, 2025, remained in the extradition wing until October 28, when the government of President Abelardo De La Espriella signed the list of pending extraditions and she was sent on a DEA aircraft to the United States. 5. Spain: Applications for Imserso's 2027 Thermalism Programme open on 5 November 2026, with 199,000 spa places and a deadline of 5 December for stays from February to August. The 2026-2027 Tourism Programme totals 879,213 places, including a reduced 50-euro fare on 7,447 places, an option to travel with pets, and prices ranging from 132.91 to 564.72 euros. 📌 Editor's note: five stories setting the pulse of the week, from Congress to the spas.
