National Day
Gibraltar celebrated its National Day this week, with drones, a party and a patriotic speech from the chief minister on the recent deal on the border
History
The 10 September date marks the Rock's first sovereignty referendum held in 1967, when Gibraltarians were asked to choose between transferring to Spanish sovereignty or continuing under British sovereignty with self-governing institutions

The suspension of the service on the Rock mirrors action taken by UK's Royal Mail and other European and international postal companies, who have all ceased the transit of parcels and goods to the USA
Environment
Gibraltar
There is much concern in the Campo de Gibraltar area of Spain over the implementation of the UK/EU deal to remove controls reached in June

Politicians on both sides of the border are confident that the Sánchez-Starmer meeting in September will seal the deal that London and Brussels reached two months ago
Marine rescue
The small vessel had lost engine power and was drifting towards the rocks
Nature
