Por Pau Mosquera y Rocío Muñoz-Ledo, CNN en Español El descarrilamiento de dos trenes de alta velocidad ha dejado al menos 39 muertos y decenas de heridos en el término municipal de Adamuz, cerca de Córdoba, en el sur de España, informó el servicio de emergencias de Andalucía. Al menos 73 pasajeros resultaron heridos, incluidos 24 en estado grave, según informaron los servicios de emergencia en X. Se vio a pasajeros saliendo a toda prisa por las ventanas de los trenes y otros escapando por el techo, según un video verificado por CNN. El conductor del segundo tren, un Alvia que viajaba de Madrid a la ciudad suroccidental de Huelva, se encontraba entre los fallecidos, informó EFE, citando fuentes de la empresa ferroviaria estatal Renfe, propietaria y operadora del Alvia. Una madre cuya hija viajaba en el mismo tren contó que su hija la llamó llorando minutos después del accidente, describiendo la escena como una catástrofe con una increíble cantidad de muertos. “En ese momento, me colgó. No había cobertura”, declaró la mujer a EFE desde la estación de tren de Huelva, donde sus familiares esperan consternados noticias de los pasajeros desaparecidos. El accidente ocurrió cuando el tren 6189 de Iryo, que viajaba de Málaga a Madrid con aproximadamente 300 pasajeros, descarriló a la entrada de Adamuz e invadió la vía contigua. Esto provocó que el tren Alvia 2384, operado por Renfe y que cubría el trayecto Madrid-Huelva, también descarrilara, dijo el Administrador de Infraestructuras Ferroviarias (Adif), gestor público de la red ferroviaria, en su cuenta de X. El tren de Iryo salió de Málaga a las 6:40 p.m. (hora local) y transportaba aproximadamente a 300 personas en el momento del accidente, dijo la compañía que lo operaba en un comunicado. Iryo lamentó lo ocurrido y anunció que activó todos los protocolos de emergencia, colaborando estrechamente con las autoridades para la gestión de la situación. Por su parte, la empresa nacional de ferrocarriles de España, Renfe, informó que activó los protocolos de seguridad para atender a los pasajeros. También habilitó puntos de información en las estaciones afectadas y grupos de asistencia psicológica en Madrid, Córdoba, Huelva y Sevilla para atender a víctimas y familiares. “Renfe y todo su equipo están junto a las familias de los pasajeros afectados en estos momentos difíciles”, dijo la compañía ferroviaria en un comunicado. El consejero de la Junta de Andalucía activó la fase de emergencia del Plan de Protección Civil por el accidente ferroviario en Adamuz, dijo la Junta regional en un mensaje en su cuenta de X. La circulación de alta velocidad entre Madrid y Andalucía se encuentra suspendida y los trenes que circulaban por la línea Sevilla-Madrid están siendo redirigidos a su punto de origen, según Adif. Personal y equipos del gestor ferroviario trabajan en la zona en coordinación con los servicios de emergencia y las empresas ferroviarias. Los servicios comerciales entre Madrid, Toledo, Ciudad Real y Puertollano operan con normalidad. El presidente del Gobierno de España, Pedro Sánchez, expresó sus condolencias a las familias y seres queridos de las víctimas, señalando que el país atraviesa una “noche de profundo dolor”. La familia real de España también manifestó sus condolencias y afirmó que sigue los acontecimientos con “gran preocupación”. El ministro de Transportes de España, Óscar Puente, dijo que la causa del incidente sigue siendo desconocida, pero añadió que fue “extremadamente inusual” ya que ocurrió en un tramo recto de vía que había sido renovado recientemente como parte de un proyecto de inversión de 700 millones de euros (US$ 8,14 millones) y el tren era relativamente nuevo. “Es realmente extraño. Todos los expertos ferroviarios que han estado aquí hoy… y los que hemos consultado están sumamente desconcertados por el accidente”, dijo Puente al canal de televisión español Telecinco. El presidente del Gobierno regional de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, dijo que los rescatistas…

By Ariel Edwards-Levy, CNN (CNN) — Few Americans are satisfied with the amount of evidence released in the Jeffrey Epstein case, a CNN poll conducted by SSRS finds, with most saying they believe the government is intentionally holding back information. The poll was conducted a little less than a month after the December 19 deadline that Congress gave the Justice Department to release all of its files about Epstein. The Justice Department estimated earlier in January that it had released less than 1% of its Epstein-related files. Department officials told a court Friday they had enlisted approximately 80 more attorneys from the department’s criminal division to work with prosecutors in New York’s Southern District to review documents related the convicted sex offender. A two-thirds majority of Americans say the federal government is intentionally holding back some information about the Epstein case that should be released, while just 16% say the government is making an effort to release all information possible. The remainder say they haven’t heard enough about the case to say. Nearly 9 in 10 Democrats and 72% of independents say the government is intentionally withholding information, as do 42% of Republicans. Only about one-third of Republicans think the government is making an effort to release information, with the rest not weighing in either way. Just 6% of Americans say they’re satisfied with what the federal government has released so far, little changed from 3% in a July 2025 survey. A 49% plurality say they’re dissatisfied, with the remainder saying that it doesn’t matter to them or that they haven’t heard enough to say. Just 12% of Republicans, 3% of Democrats and 3% of independents say they’re satisfied with the information released. But partisan concerns have shifted as President Donald Trump, who pushed Republicans not to vote for the bill establishing the December 19 deadline and rejected the files as a Democratic “hoax.” Republicans have grown likelier to dismiss the relevance of the amount of information released. A 67% majority say that it doesn’t matter or that they haven’t heard enough to say, up from 56% last summer. And 21% now say they’re dissatisfied, down from 40%. Democrats, meanwhile, have moved in the opposite direction: Seventy-one percent call themselves dissatisfied, up from 56% in July, while the share who don’t offer an opinion is 27%, down from 41%. Views among independents have barely shifted over that time, with 54% saying they’re dissatisfied and 43% offering no opinion. The-CNN-Wire™ & © 2026 Cable News Network, Inc., a Warner Bros.

By Alexandra Banner, CNN The nation will pause today to honor and remember the legacy of civil rights leader Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. It’s a federal holiday, which means most post offices, banks and government agencies will be closed. Here’s what else you need to know to get up to speed and on with your day. 1⃣ Greenland tensions The US and Europe are at odds over President Donald Trump’s demand to take over Greenland. Over the weekend, Trump threatened to impose a 10% tariff on “any and all goods” from several key European allies that oppose the move. Trump’s threat sparked a flurry of activity across the continent: Protests erupted across multiple countries, and European Union ambassadors held an emergency meeting on Sunday to coordinate a response to the tariffs, set to take effect on February 1. Trump said the 10% tariff would rise to 25% on June 1 unless an agreement is reached to purchase Greenland, which he claims the US needs for national security reasons. 2⃣ Minneapolis protests The Pentagon has ordered about 1,500 active-duty soldiers to prepare for a possible deployment to Minnesota as anti-ICE protesters and law enforcement clash in Minneapolis. The demonstrations persisted through the weekend in response to thousands of federal officers who have been conducting immigration raids throughout the city. Military officials tell CNN they have options ready should President Trump decide to send troops into the city. News of the soldiers on standby sparked backlash from local officials, including Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, who said the plan is “designed to intimidate” residents and is “completely unconstitutional.” 3⃣ Spain train derailment At least 39 people were killed and dozens more injured in a high-speed train collision in Spain on Sunday. Officials said a train traveling from Malaga to Madrid with 371 people onboard derailed near Adamuz, with its rear three carriages crashing into two carriages of another high-speed train traveling in the opposite direction. The impact caused both trains to overturn, sending several carriages plunging down an embankment. The disaster sparked nationwide grief, with Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez calling it a “night of deep pain” for the country. Investigators are examining the cause of the crash — one of the country’s deadliest rail accidents in more than a decade. 4⃣ Gaza reconstruction Members of President Trump’s “Board of Peace” for rebuilding Gaza will receive permanent membership if they pay $1 billion, according to a US official. All funds raised will go toward rebuilding Gaza, the official said, which was ravaged by two years of war between Israel and Hamas. Trump said he will serve as chair, calling it “the greatest and most prestigious board ever assembled.” Russian President Vladimir Putin has been invited to join the board and is reviewing the invitation, his spokesman said today. Other members include former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. 5⃣ Moon mission NASA’s 10-day Artemis II mission will lift off as soon as February 6, taking astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and the Canadian Space Agency’s Jeremy Hansen to the vicinity of the moon for the first time since Apollo 17 in 1972. The spacecraft carrying the four people will not land on the lunar surface because it lacks the capability to do so, a NASA spokesperson explained. However, the crew will aim to reach beyond the far side of the moon, potentially setting a new record for the farthest distance humans have ever traveled from Earth, currently held by Apollo 13. It will also make history as the first trip beyond low-Earth orbit for a person of color, a woman and a Canadian astronaut.

CNN By Dana O’Neil, CNN Miami (CNN) — Back in 2023, Jase Richardson sought a more rigorous athletic and academic high school program for his senior year. His younger brother, Jaxon, was attending a Team USA Under 16 training camp out, competing alongside Cameron and Cayden Boozer. They suggested their spot: Christopher Columbus High School. Together, they’d already led Columbus to one 7A state title. Selfishly, they knew Jase would help his team, but they also thought Columbus would help Jase. He did some quick Googling. He screwed up his nose at first when he saw that it was an all-boys school but did a little more searching anyway. He liked what he saw, so Jase and his family relocated from Las Vegas to Miami. On the first day of school, Jase sat down in his honors calculus class and introduced himself to the kid sitting next to him. Alberto Mendoza said hello. The two became friends, Alberto filling in Jase on what a great spot Columbus had been for him as well as his big brother, Fernando. And now a pause to recap the players involved. Jase Richardson, who spent just one year at Michigan State, was selected in the first round of the NBA draft by the Orlando Magic. Cayden Boozer averages 6.4 points and 3.2 assists for No. 6 Duke and is on more than a few NBA draft boards. His twin brother, Cam, leads the Blue Devils in scoring and rebounding and, come this June, will be a first-round pick and possibly the top overall player elected. And Alberto Mendoza is the backup quarterback for Indiana, which will play for the national championship against Miami on Monday. His big brother, Fernando won the Heisman and more than likely will be the top draft pick in the NFL draft. One high school, two sports, four draft picks in two years. And we’re only getting started. Denver Broncos All-Pro quarterback Brian Griese went to Columbus and so did Alonzo Highsmith, the third overall NFL pick in 1987. Baseball star Alex Rodriguez spent a year there and University of Miami football coach Mario Cristobal is an alum. “I think year in and year out, what you see come out of Columbus High School is not only elite talent but elite human beings that are driven, hungry, humble, and understand the importance of impacting others in a positive way,’’ said the Hurricanes head coach. He graduated from Columbus in 1988. So did his big brother, Lou. And Mendoza’s father, Fernando Sr. and Miami defensive back Bryce Fitzgerald and offensive lineman Ryan Rodriguez and backup quarterback Vinny Gonzalez. In an added twist, Mendoza’s father went to the school that is now trying to keep his son from winning a national title and played alongside Mario Cristobal. It’s an absurdity of riches that is hardly news to people who live in the city. “It’s been this way since the very beginning,’’ says John Lynskey, the school’s ambassador of alumni relations. “It becomes part of your DNA and I think that is passed on from generation to generation.’’ Started in 1958 by the Diocese of Miami and run since 1959 by the Marist Brothers, a religious order that was founded for education, Columbus was established as the secondary education continuation for kids at St. Theresa in nearby Coral Gables. That’s how the Cristobals ended up there. Lou needed a little structure, so his parents yanked him from public school and put him in St. Theresa. When he finished there, he naturally matriculated to Columbus and little brother Mario followed the same path. Mendoza didn’t immediately follow in his father’s footsteps. He first went to Miami Belen Jesuit but transferred to Columbus seeking, like Jase Richardson, the football competition. Alberto followed Fernando and just last week little brother, Max, learned he’d been accepted, too. “Columbus took a chance with me as a quarterback,’’ Mendoza said. “The development I got football-wise from Dave Dunn and all the other fantastic coaching and also the kind of tough personality coaching that I got from (the teachers) really helped me grow…
