  "account": "Spanish student Claudia Tacoronte, 21, was killed in Mexico, prompting a demand for justice from Spain's foreign minister. Tacoronte, a University of Granada student, was on an academic exchange program in Morelos state when she was found dead near a cultural center on Saturday. Police sources reported she died from stab wounds, having been in Morelos for less than a month. Spanish equality minister Ana Redondo condemned sexist violence, emphasizing it knows no borders or age. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated federal authorities were supporting the investigation. Students at the Mexican university held a silent vigil and called for justice, with some urging stronger protections for female students following other recent killings in the state. The University of Granada condemned the killing, canceled exchange placements for three students, and held a minute of silence in Tacoronte's memory. Mexico has a history of gender-based violence, with Morelos recording 21 femicides between January and July this year, while 380 were reported nationwide over the same period.",
  "summary": "Local authorities are investigating the case as a femicide after the academic exchange student was reported to have died of stab wounds.",
