According to official figures, 45 people are still hospitalized in Barcelona and five in the Catalan city of Tarragona. Of the people injured in the Barcelona van attack, nine remain in critical condition while 10 are in a serious condition.

Among those people injured in the Cambrils attack, three are in a serious condition.

Police are still hunting for 22-year-old Younes Abouyaaqoub, the person suspected of having driven the vehicle used in the Barcelona terror attack. Finding Abouyaaqoub is the regional police’s top priority. Catalan Interior Minister Joaquim Forn and regional police chief Josep Lluís Trapero have asked for citizen cooperation in this search.

Flyers have been distributed with the suspect’s photo. He is 1.80m tall, has short hair, dark skin, and may have grown a beard since last photographed. He also may be armed.
