The episode opens with news that US Vice President J.D. Banks has left Pakistan after negotiations with Iran ended without agreement. These were the first direct talks between the US and Iran since 1979, focusing on the Strait of Hormuz. The US claims two of its ships crossed the strait to demine the area, which Iran denies. According to Bloomberg, the ships turned back after warnings from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. The episode shifts to a diplomatic incident involving Israel and Spain. Israel summoned the Spanish Embassy's business manager in Tel Aviv after a video showed a 7-meter effigy of Netanyahu being burned with fireworks in Malaga. This occurred during a traditional Easter Sunday event. Israel's Foreign Ministry called it anti-Semitic and linked it to incitement by Pedro Sánchez. Netanyahu had previously threatened Spain with a 'high price' for starting a diplomatic war. Next, the episode covers regional Spanish politics. Álvaro Sánchez Cotrina was elected as the new general secretary of the PSOE in Extremadura, replacing Miguel Ángel Gallardo. Cotrina, the first militant from Cáceres to hold the position, won with 94% of votes. He will be ratified on April 25. The final story reports a police operation in Castellón where 80 migrants were rescued from labor exploitation. Seven people were detained for running a criminal organization that promised decent wages but forced victims to work 13-hour days in fields. The migrants lived in extreme confinement, had their wages withheld for accommodation, and were coerced through debt from their travel to Spain. Two detainees are in provisional prison. The episode concludes with a reminder that more news will follow in an hour.
