Torrero residents complain about people feeding Canal ducks and possible rat infestation

A bag of dog food, a group of ducks gathered around it and an early-morning argument. According to residents of Torrero-La Paz, the scene keeps repeating near the canal, where some locals have focused on people who come to feed the birds. The latest incident that sparked debate took place on Sunday, when one resident says she had to warn a woman not to feed the animals.

PSOE puts a figure on Azcón’s ‘abandonment’ of Zaragoza: €3 million less a year

Zaragoza’s PSOE on Monday criticized Natalia Chueca’s government for failing to hold the Capital City Bilateral Commission with the Aragonese government and demanded its immediate convening. Socialist councilor Horacio Royo denounced the “indifference” of both the city council and the Government of Aragon over an issue that, in his view, has left key matters for the city, such as funding, wastewater treatment and the construction of new facilities, on hold. Royo recalled that in Jorge Azcón’s more than three years at the head of the regional government, the commission has met only once, in December 2023.
