19.07.2025Montoro: The Billions Uncovered
The Montoro corruption investigation remained the central editorial priority, with a significant deepening of financial details throughout the day. Morning reports continued to scrutinize initial payment revelations and political infighting. By mid-morning, focus shifted to "reserved information" on tax inspections allegedly sent to Montoro's chief of staff and the judicial identification of fifteen shell companies used to divert funds. The afternoon saw new details emerge about a fiscal brigade supplying an "arsenal of reserved information" and the Civil Guard investigating possible fund diversion abroad from Montoro's firm. In the evening, reports revealed companies allegedly saved nearly a billion euros in tax benefits, with Vox formally joining as an accuser. This continued the probe's evolution, moving from initial indictments to the alleged financial mechanisms. Concurrently, wildfires persisted in various regions, though with improving containment in Alicante and Ávila, reflecting an ongoing summer concern.
