Description

The deadly rush of migrants into the Spanish exclave has deep roots in a wider North African conflict—and implications for a far wider European fight about immigration. Our India columnist presents an incomplete list of falling objects as a way to examine public-safety failures. And a data dive that reveals how AI writing is forever shifting.

  • Michael Reid, Spain correspondent and writer at large
  • Leo Mirani, Ashoka columnist
  • Caitlin Talbot, digital culture correspondent
  • Jason Palmer, co-host of “The Intelligence”
