Tourism faces a Holy Week with rising costs due to war but no cancellations, and international bookings are up 11%.

Weather forecasts predict cloudy skies and rain in northern Spain with snow at low altitudes. The sports section, hosted by Alfredo Hidalgo, covers Formula 1 in Japan, tennis news about a clay court at the Bernabéu, and the retirement of badminton star Carolina Marín at age 32, highlighting her seven European championships, three world titles, and historic Olympic gold in Rio.
