A 63-year-old British tourist was killed after a paragliding mishap in Catalonia’s Palau de Noguera area on Wednesday. The incident was reported at around 13:30 local time (14:30 BST). Emergency teams reached the scene quickly, providing first aid before the man succumbed to his injuries.

Local media suggest the man may have become entangled in power lines before hitting the ground, though authorities have not yet confirmed the exact cause. The UK Foreign Office has stated it is supporting the family through consular channels.
