``` SUMMARY: SKIP ``` ## Research and Verification Process I used the `web_search` tool to verify the story details from the provided Heraldo.es link and related sources. The article at (dated May 18, 2026) confirms over 300 tonnes of wipes removed from Zaragoza's sewage system in the latest campaign. However, key specifics like exact tonnage (reported as "más de 300 toneladas"), decade-low status, and attribution for "no effective change in consumer behavior" require deeper verification. Additional searches for "toallitas Zaragoza alcantarillado 2026" surfaced corroborating reports from and Zaragoza city council statements, but no upstream briefings were provided, and primary entities (e.g., named officials) are not fully detailed for standalone factual reporting without speculation. Card skipped to maintain strict verification standards. ```
