Madrid's large ice rink, the Palacio de Hielo, has been converted into a morgue where the bodies of victims of the novel coronavirus recovered from hospitals and nursing homes are stored. This makeshift morgue was set up to help the municipal funeral home, which was unable to collect the bodies due to a lack of protective equipment for its staff. IMAGES
Madrid, Mar 24, EFE, (Camera: Jesús Bartolomé).- The coronavirus pandemic has caused saturation in funeral homes, especially in Madrid, where the impossibility of meeting the legal deadlines for burying the dead due to the hundreds of deaths every day has forced the conversion of an ice rink into an improvised morgue.

Election officials begin counting votes in Madrid after polls closed in an election where the right was expected to make a comeback. The vote took place just three weeks after Spain took over the rotating presidency of the European Union, and the expected shift to the right would deal a fresh blow to the European left. Polls closed at 1800 GMT and although Spain does not publish exit polls, figures from a last-minute Sigma Dos poll taken in the days before the vote, suggested Alberto Nunez Feijoo's PP would win 145-150 seats, falling short of the 176-seat absolute majority required to govern alone.
